Hey guys, I've been lurkin around the forums ever since I've started playing sro. I havn't really been able to play too much, but I have found some fun doodling around in the offtopic and AC. I recently reinstalled photoshop (yesterday) after a year or two without and started messing around with it again. Here's my first... er.. work of art, I suppose you could call it xD My skills are still a bit rusty, but I thought I'd need a sig sooner or later...

So this might be a stupid question, but I've never been able to figure out how to get rid of the white around the render sticking out. I thought I had solved the problem by just erasing all of it on photoshop, but apparently that doesnt work when you upload it @_@ I was wondering if anyone could help me with that :?

Thanks :D

Assuming the white is the background layer, right click and "add alpha channel to layer" or something to that effect. Not sure how it works in PS/PSP. Then go about erasing and whatnot like you had before. Save as .gif or .png

Hope that helps.

Thanks for all the help and welcomes guys :D Yeah, saving it as .png worked fine.

@rizla- I'll try to keep the text away from the edge next time xD I wish you could just move characters between servers... thatd save loads of trouble.
