 For your convenience, we have created some templates to ease the creation of hats. You can use them as background layer to help you align your hats.
-The raster image templates show a colored checkerboard pattern. The green and red fields are those where the idle hedgehog has an offset of +1px or −1 px (see above).
 
 == Non-team hats ==
-You can use [http://www.hedgewars.org/images/Hat_Template.png Hat_Template.png].
+A basic PNG template is [http://www.hedgewars.org/images/Hat_Template.png Hat_Template.png]. You can use this image as a background layer. This image shows a colored checkerboard pattern, each field represents an animation frame. The green and red fields are those where the idle hedgehog has an offset of +1px or −1 px (see above). The black fields are the unused frames. In the front, the idle hedgehog can be seen but shifted 5 pixels lower and the 5 lowest pixels cut off.
+You can use this image to exactly align the hat properly.
 
-For GIMP users, there is [http://www.hedgewars.org/images/Hat_Template.xcf Hat_Template.xcf], where you can turn layers on and off.
+This image is also available as XCF for GIMP users: [http://www.hedgewars.org/images/Hat_Template.xcf Hat_Template.xcf]. It got an additional layer and you can easily toggle a couple of layers on and off.
 
-There is also a SVG image available: [http://www.hedgewars.org/files/fck_upload/file/template_svg.zip template_svg.zip]. It has a hat placeholder on the first frame, which is cloned to all the other frames, thus keeping you from copying/placing it over and over.
-The last frame still will need editing as the hog eyes change there. A separate layer containing a mask for the right hand is included in case your hat is covered by it.
 
 == Team hats ==
-You can use [http://www.hedgewars.org/images/Team_Hat_Template.png Team_Hat_Template.png]
+You can use [http://www.hedgewars.org/images/Team_Hat_Template.png Team_Hat_Template.png].
 
-For GIMP users, there is [http://www.hedgewars.org/images/Hat_Template.xcf Hat_Template.xcf], where you can turn layers on and off.
