the magic wand is your friend, but so is zooming in to a high zoom and using the paintbrush to fill in the white spots

renders can be difficult with basic tools, thats for sure (the link figure)


its not bad, but starting out making sigs you just want to do more and more and more, start with a few good looking images (high resolution if possible) and then just cut peices out of them, add a simple effect, and then play around with text


also, make sure you always do a new layer for everything (new effect, color, text, images, etceter) and make sure you save a .pdn or whatnot file (that way you can get back in and change up the sig using the layers) and then also save as GIF or JPG or whatnot

Alright thx. Any other ways to make images trans other than magic wand and paintbrush because magic wand gets harder to use on detailed backgrounds.

its like a light editing software that you can get plugins for


cho, you might want to explore downloading some plugins to be able to do various functions that the base software doesnt do

i would use photoshop. but i'll have to wait for a new computer lol. cuz last time like i said long time ago, it made my computer pretty darn slow lol

oh and tips. times wen u are cutting out something. its sometimes good to trace along the object using the line tool and on another layer.

after tracing use the magic tool on same layer of wat u gonna remove from the objectt then go to the original and delete and poof its looks like u cut it perfectly,

i hope understand wat im saying if not then sry lol i'll try to post up screen shots of wat i mean
