Moviemaker is for making movies, not avatars/sigs/banners/etc., so that won't really help you either ![]() Thats not to say you can't use Paint though! Quote:
And thanks for the compliment ![]() |

And KiLa, nice job doing the advanced rounded edges. I'm proud that one of my "students" has made their own way of doing it too. You should practice to see if you can do it again ![]() |

You've attracted my attention KiNa. You're still my friend
![]() It would also be good if you could do a tutorial. I would really appreciate that ![]() Now, on to backgrounds: First of all, I'm going to point out a few sites which I enjoy getting brushes from. -8Nero Custom Brushes -DeviantArt -AngryBlue -Google (search for Photoshop brushes or something similar. Good for finding specifics, ie. blood brushes.) As for making the backgrounds, thats to come soon. |

May I suggest you a freeware program which is very indicated for taking snapshots? It is bsplayer, located at http://www.bsplayer.org/ . Very easy to handle. You can select a destination path for snapshots, in the options. And then, while the video is running, for every time you will push a button (on mine is "P", it should be settable though) it will autosave a jpeg snapshot on the designed folder. Then if you need an amount of frames to realize an animated gif, you will most likely need something else, but for now, I answered to your question. Hope to have been helpful, and if you'd need further infos you can alway ask ![]()

Cutting Render using Quick Mask
OK.. this is how I cut my render .. I use PS CS2 so I dont know if this tool is available for lower version PS :/
OK let start ... We gonna use this image ![]() Spoiler:
Now close the spoiler and stop oogling her .. we gonna get up close and personal with her soon ![]() Reset your brush to use the default brush make sure the opacity of the brush is 100% too.. Press D to get the default Black/White default foreground/background color. Spoiler:
So just brush over her to cover her up .. like this ![]() Spoiler:
Now this is what I say we gonna get up close and personal.. Press X to switch the foreground and background .. using white now right, now brush over the part you dont want .. white is the delete option for quick mask .. so just go over the outer rim.. leaving the hard part (like her hair) for later .. Spoiler:
Once you satisfied with your quickmask .. like this Spoiler:
End Result .. Spoiler:
That wasnt so hard eh ![]() ![]() ![]() Disclaimer: I like to claim Tamaki for myself .. but I think most people would object .. so I just lay claim to this tutorial by myself.. I've learn this from a tutorial from another forum, but I wrtite this one based on my experience .. and the tip is my own style.. dont know if other people use this tactic as well ![]() ![]() ![]() Well. I'm tired now so ![]() Want me to do multicolor tut?

Very nice tutorial! It is indeed a bit less confusing than the one I saw before the nuke (no offence), so I might actually start dropping the eraser tool and try this
![]() As for the "specks" remaining due to cutting a render, I find it useful (especially when pasting onto invisible background) to use Layer -> Layer Style -> Stroke @ about 2-3 pixels and a highly visible colour (red, blue, green, depending on the render) to find the last specks. Also, even if I endanger myself to sound dumb, I save all my cut-out renders on invis background for later use, so I can resize or re-cut them at will. But then again, who wouldn't ![]()

Well.. I usually add another bright contrasting layer (under it) on my cutout template so I can hunt the leftover specks but I guess yours can work as well.. Just remember that you have to remove the blending option when to import it to another doc
![]() And I do saved them too .. you already spend hours on it why would you just throw it over ![]() ![]()
