Forum rules


Posting:

* Individual players should be in their own thread, with the full name of the player and position(s) in the title. Don't add superlatives or any other shout outs to it... we will see your guys...
* If you post a team or a set of players, add players by editing your starting post so they're all in the same post. A bump to announce the edit is appropriate.
* Posting images are fine, provided they are small in dimension and data. 800x600 and ~50Kb should be the biggest you can post inline (using the [IMG] tag), anything larger, post a link or a clickable thumbnail instead.
* If you have wiki rights, add your player(s) and team(s) there as well!

Here's my attempt at making John Olerud for the Wii version of MLB PP 2008. I apologize for not being very good at fine-tuning my creations yet. For example, his fielding and contact hitting aren't quite at the level I was hoping for... but at least it's something to work with.

(This is also my first posting and I'm still learning the process, so please be patient. I have more to follow.) Thanks guys!

Solid job for one of your first attempts. I say keep trying - the same thing happened with me.

To be honest, I don't remember the exact swing I used. Olerud was always pretty still with his stance, so I used one of the generic, slightly-open stances. (Not any specific player's swing.) Unfortunately, I just don't remember which...

Thanks, Nick! I've got a list of players I'd love to take a shot at creating. :)
