      For simple logo on T-Shirts, you should use Color Magic to extract the package and S4PE to export the texture. Then you'll of course need a photo editing program to edit the texture (like photoshop or gimp). TS4 CAS/Mesh Tools is great for cloning meshes, which in turn has them show up as a new thumbnail in CAS. So, if you'd like to create 10 new t-shirt colors, you could use Mesh Tools to clone the original package, then use Color Magic to make multiple recolor packages and S4PE to import the edited textures and combine all the t-shirts into one package file.

      Eyes, skin overlays, eyebrows, hair retextures, makeup... that can all be done with the above method, too.

      i tried to edit a skin overlay but it's all grey ?

      You mean it's grey when you're editing it or grey in game?

      maybe i need to explain more. i'm trying to make a replacement skin with proper parts. when i extract the top and bottom parts from color magic into s4pe the images are all grey and dark no colour whatsoever.

      Mmm, that's because ColorMagic only does skin overlays, not full replacement skins. I haven't dug too deep into this myself, but try browsing around here, see what you can figure out.

      well on that note has any1 figured out how to add skin colors, not overlays but new colors other than blue and green?

      I'm trying to make a light purple/gray sim and I've done that with overlays, but now i can't use gloves or tattoos cause they are masked out by the details layer skin detail, anyway I need recolors as a skin tone not a detail so i can use tattoos and gloves again
