Partizan Painted Variants
Hello. There's a few things about your Partizan image uploads that you should know. Firstly when uploading images make sure to add the correct categories. You already uploaded the images so the subst template won't work, you'll need to add the categories manually by editing the file page for each painted variant. You also should add the rotations for the Partizan on this page, you can learn how to enter and find rotations here. Also you forgot to change the team color to the BLU skin when taking screenshots of BLU team colored paints, if you could redo the BLU team colored images with the correct skin that would be appreciated.

- Oh, so sorry. Tried to fix everything. Thanks for pointing out the problem!

- Thanks for correcting the categories and fixing the BLU team colored paints, but now I notice 2 more things. Firstly it looks like your images might not be at full high quality (it looks like there's some anti-aliasing issues). To fix this I would recommend downloading HLMV++, an improved version of HLMV which adds improvements and new features, but more importantly fixes the quality/blur effect of normal HLMV. You can learn how to install HLMV++ right here. The other thing is that for some cosmetics you need to include the class's head or body for painted variants. For example, the Plaid Lad should have Demoman's head included (like this for example), and the Firebrand should have the Pryo's torso (like this for example). You can change it so the class is only showing one part of its body by having folders that correspond to a specific part of a class. You can find these folders on the rotations page or on this backup of all the folders, and once you have the folder that you need, add it to your tf/custom folder and it should work in HLMV.
If you want me to, I could redo your images for you.
