An icon of Kristal with new background and text
Hello girls (I don’t think any boy exists in our club :P)
Iti is back with another lesson of icone making. So today I will tell toi how to change background of an image (while making icon) and adding texts to it. So, I will start the main problem that occurs during changing background, for beginners.
While changing background one need to know which tool is perfect. So here we start.
Steps
1. Open a picture.
2. Now click on “magic wand” and select the area toi want to remove. For this toi can click on “add” in the above box, where toi can see which tool toi selected. ou directly press “cntrl + shift” and keep pressing it.
3. When you’ll select the places, press “delete” button. And the required area will get deleted.
4. Remember don’t deselect the area.
5. Now use paint brush to color the required area in any color toi want.
6. You can add the shade of dark color in borders (remember in précédant article I told toi how to do it? If not toi can read it again)
7. Now toi can add “soft edge dots” as I told toi how, in précédant chapters.
8. If toi have problem in selecting any area toi can also use Lasso tool, it really helps.
