Not too bad.

It would be really good if it wasn't highly underpowered (you need two blacks for that design) and you could still gain empty space.

Here's a few tips

1) Add two blacks to the front.

2) Add the wheels and weapons to two Snapper 2's on the neck.
Put this onto your signature if you were part of this crappy fad in '03.

Really great bot, but: There's no reason for that HPZtek in the center because it's outreached except for when you're fighting backwards. If you changed the two corners in front of the wheel so that they are parallel to the front, you might gain some free weight.
The real problem with reality is the absence of background music.

Um... Get rid of the green outlines. Maybe download GIMP? Good editing software.

F***! I just can't skin for s***! Honestly, does the skin mater? I build bots that work. Skining is somethig I do last, if at all. On a side note, I did this post on a another commputer, so I can't do any thing about it at this time.

the bot is good. if you suck at skinning, 1: dont post an outside pic of your bot. 2: dont post 2 pictures of a horrible skin in a different post.

Or people, give him a break and just focus on the design, not the skin.

Does skinning ever matter for ANYTHING?!?!?!?! Everybody here focuses to much on something that really doesn't matter for the bot.

I'd rather be owned by a cool looking bot than a peice of junk.

I agree. Skinning isn't important if you just want to show how the bot is built.
