Wow, people were really waiting for it, so many comments :)

I have some suggestions on how this could be changed to be more future-proof:

- you could have "head" instead have whole body, similar to the template naked body. This way if in the future you would like to make costume that doesn't cover whole body it would be easy to do, and you would support all skin colors.

- in the solution above hair itself would be separate from body, so you could use any hair with any body color

- things like black glasses could also be separate sheet, so you could have many more combinations, like use hat + glasses, or just hat, or just glasses. Each item would add a lot of combinations.

- maaaybe separate top and bottom for some of those clothes, so we could use different leg-wear and top, or go topless, lol. This would also multiply the amount of possible NPC combinations we can make. 

What is there is great, don't get me wrong, but if I can help make it even a bit better then I'll throw any suggestion I can think of!

Hi Areinu! Thanks for your advices!
I'm gonna add the naked body to the floating heads tomorrow, that's a good idea! Glasses are gonna be in separate files for sure! I'm still figuring out how to cut off the hairs from many head designs cause they usually have a specific color that connects the skin color with the hair color, so they are not very versatile! At the moment I plan to add more skin colors to the actual head designs, so we are going to have "Head_1", "Head_1_b" etc..

Thanks for the help, I really appreciate your feedback and I'm trying to do my best here to give you a really cool dress-up system!

Hmm, I didn't think about "hair connector", that will be tricky. I guess it could be semitransparent pixels, similar to the shadows... But then it won't be just plain cutting it into pieces and instead redrawing those parts...

I've decided to embrace all of your advices and I've started separating the hairstyles adding semi-transparent colors to connet the skin with the hair!
I've also added naked bodies so the "heads" files are not needed anymore! here
