Title: How to make a Redemption Card-Tutorial
Post by: drb1200 on November 22, 2009, 10:29:27 AM

Step 1-Paste your template into a photo-editing program like Photoshop. I am using this one (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v242/timmierz/TemplateGray.jpg).

Step 2-Paste the picture you want to use for the card. For example, I am using The Last Supper image (http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y49/tunitha/lastsupper.jpg). Scale it down as much as you want (Edit, Transform, Scale).

Step 3-Hide the layer with the picture of the Last Supper on it. Now you can see the template. Draw a selection around the empty area where your picture will fit.

Now, go back to the image of the Last Supper (with the selection still going), and cut it out. Then, delete that layer and paste the new layer. You should get something like this.

Step 4-Get a brigade box (preferably one from here (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v242/timmierz/IconBoxes.jpg)) and trim it down to the brigade box you want (use the magic wand if you want).

Step 5-Add your text to the image. Most of the text is Lucian, and the Artist name is CG Omega. You can download those fonts on www.fontyukle.com (http://www.fontyukle.com)

Step 6-Enjoy!
