I'm also planning to make an expansion that has this skin.

I noticed this in your help thread, but you may want to avoid posting multiple times in a row.

Congratulations on completing your first skin! However, as with most first skins, there is a set of criticisms that can be given to this skin.
First, he isn't exactly holding his gun, it just kind of...appears...in place of his hand, it also shifts vertical positions between the front and back diagonal frames.
...Any other criticisms on the walking frames, etc would require me to decompile the skin, which I don't exactly want to do...so I'll just leave with the common criticism that this is a megaman edit...which is ok for a starter skin, since it gives a good base skin to work with. I do recommend branching off of edits for future skins, however.

EDIT: Oh yes...about your expansion. I recommend holding off on trying to make one until you know how to mod the engine in full or get a good foothold in the community because expansions are not something that can be completed in a day. Baby steps must be taken and building and editing takes time to learn and experience.

It would also probably help if you posted pictures so people know what they're downloading.

I'm not good at making skins, but I can't get a good sprite of his back sprite. Can you edit it for me?

I could, but I'd rather not, personally...all one can really do in that regard is give pointers. The criticisms I gave were meant to help you improve on your current skin and future skins so that you can become better at making them on your own.

OK, I fixed some things about it, but there are still some errors. https://www.dropbox.com/s/q2jr30kktuzhxhq/AngryVideoGameNerd.pk3
