TOPIC | IbisPaint's A MEANIE >:(
Hi, I'm Monarch (you could call me Mon to make it quicker)!
There's an issue I have not cracked yet when it comes to making skins and accents here on Flight Rising.
You see, I draw on my iPad using an app called IbisPaint X, which is pretty good! However, one MAJOR flaw in the app is that I can't download PSDs for some reason.
I've been trying to make skins for fae dragons and whatnot for Flight Rising, but I have never been able to download the PSDs required for me to create these skins. Now, I feel useless, for I see no purpose in TRYING to do anything if I can't even download the PSD required.

Is there any sort of way for me to download the PSDs in a way that won't give my iPad viruses (for reasons,,,,) or requires that I download some sort of app? I've scanned through the entirety of the Custom Skins page for any sort of text that explains what to do in situations like these, and didn't seem to find anything.
Does IbisPaint X just not support downloading PSDs in any shape or form and I just didn't realize? It should be, considering that everytime I try to download the PSDs it offers to take me to IbisPaint X, but then again, I have no idea!

PDF is a file format used to present and exchange documents. PSD is is a layered image file format, and the one you're looking for ;)

All the skin psds are uploaded as zip files because they include more than just one psd file, so to save time and storage space they were uploaded as zip files.

Looking at Google, there appears to be a way to extract zipped files, depending on your OS version: https://www.howtogeek.com/fyi/how-to-unzip-a-zip-file-with-your-iphone-or-ipads-files-app/

@SeaCrest OH, I had no idea where I got pdf from xD I'll go edit my thread soon so it doesn't say PDF! But for now, I have a picture for what I get when I try to download a PSD (I chose the mirror female template): [img]http://i.ibb.co/C5fGgw2/image.jpg[/img] There is no "more" option or anything. It autodirects me to IbisPaint, and I have no idea how to change it, or [i]if[/i] it could be changed.

I recommend Googling your particular OS number and "how to open a zip file." You should be able to click and hold on the file, to "right click" and bring up more options but I'm unfamiliar with Apple devices so I don't know if that's actually a thing.
