THE DOWNLOAD FILE IS A PSD [PHOTOSHOP] FILE. If you need me to make it into another format [PDN, etc.] PLEASE LEAVE A COMMENT. If you wish to use just the non-layer version, right-click and save the preview image. [Also, try downloading the PSD first, because most programs open them.]

Alright! So I made my own "dAID" template, right? Then, I find out afterwards that Himaruya actually UPDATED this template thing. xD;; So I made a NEW ID template ohoho! [God, this one was so much harder to do. xD;] I'll also make one for OC nation-tans too, since I actually had to chop the regular base up quite a bit. xD;;; I used Wy's and Sebo's as base to make this one, lols.

There are multiple layers to use, and since this one is more complicated, I'll explain each layer.
[The layers are all in order top-to bottom. xD]

ID Information Layer: This is where you write a paragraph about yourself. 8D;

Nickname Layer: This is where you type your nickname thing. Nickname, being whatever you want people to call you. xD;

Nickname Outline Layer: This is the layer that you outline your nickname with white on.

ID Status Layer: This is where you fill out the birthday/nation/gender stats and whatnot.

Chibi Drawing Layer: This is the layer where you place your chibi drawing [of yourself, lols.]

Chibi Outline Layer: This is the layer that you outline your chibi with white on.

Chibi Shadow Layer: This is the layer that you outline your chibi with a shadow on!

[optional] Question Mark Layer: This is the layer you'd keep visible only if you didn't want to add a map on. [it's a temporary placeholder, lols.]

[optional] New Map Layer: This is the layer that you'd place a new black and white map picture of where you live [if you want xD;] on. [Keep the layer on multiply, and make sure the map is a black and white one.]

[optional] New Map Blue Colour Layer: This is the layer that you'd make visible if you DO add a map of your country, you'd use this blue colour to highlight your country [by selecting everything that isn't your country and deleting the blue there.]

[optional] Flag Texture Layer: This is what gives the flag texture, Himaruya made all of his flags have this kinda weird texture, lol. Turn off the visibility of this layer if you don't wanna put any flag up.

[optional] New Flag Layer: This is the layer where you'd put up a new flag! [of your country, lols. xD;] You are supposed to leave a little white border around the flag, too. [Just google a flag [I use wikipedia's] and resize it to be kinda square-ish. xD;]

[optional] dA Flag Layer: I made a flag to show off your dA pride! 8D;; turn this off if you don't wanna use this. xD; [to leave it blank, or to add your new flag.]

Base Template Layer: Self-explanatory. xD;

Use these layers if you wanna make it as accurate as possible. xD; Also, if you have a question about a specific part or layer, leave a comment.

Other Information to Know:: [Also provided in the PSD file itself.]

Feel free to add information and change around the display of this ID.

It may be easier to make a chibi in a different file, simplify it, import it to this one, and then make a shadow for it here. [Use about a size 17 gray brush, then Filter> Blur> Gaussian blur it.] Use about the same size for the outline [without the blur.]

For the “status” layer, use font Century Gothic, size 12
for your username, and size 10 for the rest.

For the “information” layer, use font Arial, size 14, anti-aliasing off.

For the “nickname” layer, use font Verdana, size 36.
Use the paintbrush at size 8/9/10 to outline the letters with white.

To get the colours for the font [if you accidentally change it], use to eyedropper tool before you type.

I'd love to see what you have done with this template! Leave a comment if you wish. ♥
