microsoft paint question

Recommended Posts

All right guys, I do all of my concepts on the very basic microsoft paint. I wanted to know if, I dont know how to say this, when I go to outline something to cut and paste, you can only use a square shape wich leaves alot of white space. Is there a way to outline something exactly along it's lines? Sorry if it's a bit confusing. Thanks for the help. :hockeysmiley:

Use the free-form select. But it's a pain in the ass.

Free-form select helps.

Also, make the background on the area you're selecting transparent (it's on the left side controls, beneath all the tools) - if you make the edited item's white space opaque, it'll overlay the background you're placing it on.

In order for the Mets' run of 12 losses in 17 games to mean something, the Phillies still had to win 13 of 17.

I'm using paint also, and I'm not seeing any extra options like that...

Alright, get a pic. Then, take a portion of the picture and drag it. When you select a portion of the picture, you will see under the tools, two picture that have shaped in them. There should be one on top of the other. Select the bottom one and there ya go!

I don't think there really is a way to get those white spots from around the picture. Even if you select the transparent button-thingy. The reason is that those pixels aren't exactly white. They have a slight tint of whatever color the edge of your picture is. It's a blending sort of thing. Outside of haveing that sharp cutoff point (which makes having a smooth picture a bit difficult to achieve) I think you're stuck. You can edit the pixels individually though. Which is also a pain to do.
