The verbiage is a little hard to read, though.

Thanks, Bonnie! A very nice person named Aysun at another site made it for me. She was cool enough to let me use it here too. I just gave her the pictures I wanted and told her what I was looking for, and she made my siggy. I love it!

I don't have Photoshop, but I have other packages, such as Paint Shop Pro and GIMP, can anyone offer any tips on doing the picture and layer merging technique. I have tried it but I keep getting jagged edges around the outline of my pictures.

Subject: Re: Siggies n stuff Thu Nov 18, 2010 6:59 pm

You have to clean up the outer edges of your pictures, pixel by pixel if necessary.

Subject: Re: Siggies n stuff Fri Nov 19, 2010 6:14 pm

Is that the main difference between PSP and Photoshop?

I have PSP and I really dislike having to clean up the edges because I'm not that stable with the pictures I have to work with.

I know that some packages have a feathering technique when you make a selection - the trouble is that I get confused, knowing when to invert selections etc... sorry if I sound a bit technical. I tend to use PSP a fair bit, but I also have paint.net. I have yet to get to grips with paint.net. It seems to be very popular and talked about in glowing terms, but I have as yet to see it beat PSP or GIMP. I think that GIMP beats the lot, hands down, as it is the nearest thing to Photoshop and yet it costs nothing.

Subject: Re: Siggies n stuff Sat Nov 20, 2010 7:11 pm

I use Photoshop. If I want a really clean cutout, I zoom in the picture as much as possible, then clean it pixel by pixel. The feathering feature is nice but it eats into the picture.

Photoshop has a Magic wand that selects similarly colored pixels, either in a continuous area, or not. You can set the percentage of difference from the color (pixel) selected. That helps a lot in clipping.

I've heard that GIMP is a lot like Photoshop, and free.
