Open Paint.NET 2. Create a New 400x130 3. Select The Gradient Tool 4. Use the Gradient in One Area of The Image and Create a New Layer. Do this about 4-5 Times, Using a Different Color Every time.

Go into your pictures folder and drag the image youve made with the above part of the tutorial. Dont even try to move it from where it automaticly places it. KEPP IT THERE! There should be a white space under your original image. We want that. You will see why Later on. Now go to File>Save As and name it another name in .png format. 15. Go to: http://www.hypah.com/?a and upload the image you just created. 16. Click The Star-Burst Effect 17. Place he effect in the top left corner and the bottom right corner. And maybe even one in the middle if it feels right 18. Hit the green done button. It should render as a .gif file and say here is the link to your animation: Example: http://s1a.hypah.com/ (some name here) 19. Copy that link it gives. Go to that link. You go to link like and see that g** watermark eh? Good thing its in that white area because I've got a plan to get the watermark off =] 19. Right Click the Image and press Save As. Save it under any name you like. This image should be saved in .GIF format. 20. Now, go to http://blibs.com Upload the .GIF picture you just saved with the hypah.com watermark in the white area. Now, on the top toolbar go to: Edit>Crop Image. The image may take a little time to load. Please be patient. Now, Click on the top right of the image and hold it and drag it all the war to the bottom left. make sure that it is cropped in the image and the red cropping line indicating where you are cropping doesnt go off the image. If it does, It wont crop right. Once it looks like its going to crop good press the image at the top that says 'Crop Image' It should refresh the page and show the cropped image without the watermark of white part. Now you are probably saying- OMFG!! YAY hehe. Next, go to File > Save Image on the top toolbar. Scrool down the page and you'll see your image again. Right click the image and press 'Save Picture As' Name the image what you like. Now, just host it on photobucket or any other image hosting site and you have finished! Congratulations! =] Post your result! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
