Constructive feedback:

  • Use better language
  • The internet is full of tutorials on these things
  • When you see the title, you have no idea what the tutorial will be about. Maybe change the name to “How to add images to parts”
  • Maybe scale the images on the post a bit? They are verry big and they hurt my eyes.

I agree with this one. It isn’t easy to master a language, even your native ones, but it’s important for a tutorial to be clear and easy to understand.

Couldn’t I just use a decal?

Decals, in my opinion are useless, SurfaceGuis allow more customization (i.e I can scale the X size freely without changing the Y size, this would be annoying to attempt on a decal).

On top of that, I’m pretty sure you can make images appear a whole lot clearer with the property PixelPerStud, another feature that makes SurfaceGuis superior.

no offense but im not sure you should be writing tutorials if your english is broken

that leads to a whole pile of confusion

#15

do they have performance differences though?

#16

Yes. Compared to Decals, SurfaceGui’s are absolute performance killers. Having more than 2000 of them on the screen at once can tank your fps. On the other hand, decals do not.

Personally I would only ever use a decal when working with ViewportFrames or Glass as both of those do not render SurfaceGuis.
