Graphic Hints and Tips #223

I realized that I explained something on pg. 11 of the last thread, so I hope it's OK to open this [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

I know you already got an answer for this, but another way to fill preset shapes is to simply set the "Fill" colour to the colour you want, and then draw the shape [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] By changing the "Stroke" colour you get another colour for the border.

I've been trying to make fan arts that looks like these:

but I don't know how I can get the pictures to look like that. What I mean is I don't want to paste a bunch of pics next to eachother, I want it to look like one single picture. Like those wallpapers.

Should I use the Clone Brush??</STRONG>
No, you shouldn't - you blend pics together to make it look like that. There are at least two ways of doing this, but I like this way;

This would be a little banner:
- Open two pics, with the same heigth
- Then take a new image, I always use white background and size a bit taller and wider than the pics (width would be combined - if you want the pics after each other).
- Paste the first picture as a new layer on the white image. Then paste the second pic on the white image, also as a new layer, but a bit on top of the first picture.
- Now take the eraser brush, make sure it's not too huge and opacity isn't set on too much - somewhere around 40-50 is usually good - and erase the parts you want gone. Make sure you have the right layer chosen - i.e, when you want to erase something from the first pic, click on it first, and vice versa.
Unless there's the other pic underneath the white colour will shine through while erasing, this is why the pics should be pasted a bit on top of each other. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Oh dear, I hope that made some sense to you! I have never tried to explain this at 3 am before, so just scream if you need to clarify anything [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] But I think you'll be fine, just try and see what you come up with! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]
