Can someone please help me with this?
Okay, so in my story, the MC’s brother is facetiming someone. How do I make the hand in the Selfie overlay match him skin tone? Thanks!

So, at the library, click on “Overlays” and search up “Selfie”, there you will find numerous of those selfie overlays and click on one of the overlays, and find one that kinda matches your character.
An example, “SELFIE MALE 1”
I am assuming that you are talking about this overlay.

Yes, I know how to get the overlay. My question is how do I make the skin tone the same as what the reader chose?

I don’t know, if this will answer your question, but, perhaps, use the if, elif, else code.
Like, if the reader chooses for the MC a light skin, then, you can use the SELFIE FEMALE 1. This is an example.
I don’t know, if I made your question more complicated. I honestly don’t really know, this is my idea. 
Sorry, if it wasn’t any use.

Hi there are several ways how to do it but in general you will need to remember the choice and than use if/elif else.
I did it this way:
I created only 4 skin shades light, light tan, dark tan and dark. And aksed the reader to tell me how he would describe the skin color of MC puting there gains:
NARR
Marbel’s skin is:
choice
"1 - light"
{
gain M_skin1
}
"2 - light tan (original)"
{
gain M_skin2
}
"3 - dark tan"
{
gain M_skin3
}
"4 - dark"
{
gain M_skin4
}
and later when I needed to use limb overlay:
if (M_skin1)
{
#here goers what happens with this choice
}
elif (M_skin2)
{
@overlay HAND MARBEL_W opacity 1 in 0
#here goers what happens with this choice
}
elif (M_skin3)
{
#here goers what happens with this choice
}
else
{
#here goers what happens with this choice
}
