So I was toying around in Photoshop during Commercial Art, today, and I made this:

I think it looks pretty good, but I'd like some advice on anything I could do to make it better.

needs some sort of background badly

Gaika · 02-21-2009, 12:50 AM

or make it transparent.

I like it. (if it were transparent)

Paladinn · 02-21-2009, 12:58 AM

I'm in need of a bit of help, how do I make it transparent and STAY transparent?
Whenever I try to upload it, the white background comes back.

select the layer you want to make transparent and change the opacity (above the layers tab)

uhhh. no. if all you did was the text and just smudge some red, go to the original background image, copy from background and delete it.

Originally did it in Cs2, now I'm doing it in Cs3, and I really haven't used Cs3.. Well, at all really.
Ach, I'll just keep it white for sloth's sakes.

Did it really take seven posts before the most obvious was mentioned?
