I just made this skin, I am not satisfied with the shading on the actual skin, (I kinda like the dress as is) any good tutorials or tips and tricks?

those will help you along quite well

on your shading now, your skin has a white box around its head, thats not good, and its because you used a program that didn't support transparency, try MCSkin3D, its one of the links i posted up above

your shading is pretty simplistic, not bad, but it could be much better

If you go on a skin making website called minershoes.com it has a shading option. On the option skin editor on the top right there is a large paintbrush. Click on it. Choose your colour and it will automatically shade it.

If you are going to do this, i dont think you are allowed to post it, shading programs and other programs that dont allow you to make it your self are banned, but i dont know, ask a member of staff if this is allowed.

oliversmith7 is right, and those kinds of 'skin makers' aren't user-friendly. Many skinners including me use MCSkin3D by Paril.
