Variable colours

Sorry, I had a sudden urge to do another example...

Only used hue and saturation shifting. The base image is only made up of transparency, pure red (X,0,0) and pure green (0,X,0).

you can test other clothes by replacing the "kimono.png" with yours. the source image needs to be b+w with a very high contrast.

You could try an approach similar to Charas.EX. It is a program that makes sprites by combining a body, face, hair, clothes, and accessories. Each component image is imported, and when importing, you can use a color picker tool to define up to 3 different "regions" on the image. When selecting a component image to make a sprite, you can alter the coloration of each region on the component.

what about using a "cookie" type file on the clients machine that stores a players colorscheme info (and a variety of other stuff) that the server sends when a player enters viewing distance ... that way the server doesn't have to always keep sending it. don't know if this makes an ounce of sense ...
