Yup, the blue color is placeholder one. The goal of this exercise is to make customisable texture, since I want to make <i>Lady Washington</i> version as well without redrawing entire skin <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="

Anyway, I have a question about first Jack Sparrow skin. If you recall, I made my own version of that skin, and the general consensus was that his face was worse than this custom Jack's face, but my bandana was better (and it damn well should be - I used photos of Jack to recreate the pattern <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="

So, was it done? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="
