97 A basic PNG template is [http://www.hedgewars.org/images/Hat_Template.png Hat_Template.png]. You can use this image as a background layer. This image shows a colored checkerboard pattern, each field represents an animation frame. The green and red fields are those where the idle hedgehog has an offset of +1px or −1 px (see above). The black fields are the unused frames. In the front, the idle hedgehog can be seen but shifted 5 pixels lower and the 5 lowest pixels cut off. |

100 For GIMP users, there is [http://www.hedgewars.org/images/Hat_Template.xcf Hat_Template.xcf], where you can turn layers on and off. |
100 This image is also available as XCF for GIMP users: [http://www.hedgewars.org/images/Hat_Template.xcf Hat_Template.xcf]. It got an additional layer and you can easily toggle a couple of layers on and off. |

102 There is also a SVG image available: [http://www.hedgewars.org/files/fck_upload/file/template_svg.zip template_svg.zip]. It has a hat placeholder on the first frame, which is cloned to all the other frames, thus keeping you from copying/placing it over and over. |

103 The last frame still will need editing as the hog eyes change there. A separate layer containing a mask for the right hand is included in case your hat is covered by it. |
