GOLDENBLADE92'S PROFILE

post=110383
With the amount of experience you have in terms of making games with RPG Maker (still a beginner) and graphics design (I'd venture to say very little or none), I would have to recommend doing the best you can with the resources RPG Maker provides you. Don't try to break off too far if you can't help it, until you gain more experience.

Your question is more about graphics design than game making. Check out GIMP; it's a free graphics creation program with capabilities similar to Photoshop. Read documentation, search google for tutorials. Hell, I STRONGLY recommend taking a community college course on graphics design; chances are they are really great and can build you up pretty high from scratch. Try to gain some knowledge yourself instead of trying to get each individual issue you come across taken care of by other people.

Some experience with RPG Maker and foundations in graphics design would be enough to answer most or all the questions you've asked thus far.
