tome10 Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 I'm new.. I managed to color this icon Red, but how do I create the lighting/shading affects? And, my icon seems to be awful jaggy, ideas on what I did wrong? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toe_head2001 Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 You'd probably just want to change the Hue.

tome10 Posted January 22, 2017 Author Share Posted January 22, 2017 That's Perfect! Thanks! I apparently need to look into this 'Hue' Sorcery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ego Eram Reputo Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 It's a dark art.

tome10 Posted January 24, 2017 Author Share Posted January 24, 2017 (edited) If I need to make the background transparent, what's the 'proper' way? I've been magic wanding the background, and deleting selection. Is there a better way? I know I can highlight the object and copy-paste onto an opaque background. Any tricks to retain fidelity of the image. Edited January 24, 2017 by tome10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ego Eram Reputo Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 For plain white or black backgrounds I tend to use AlphaSpace because it respects shadows and is very easy to use. AlphaSpace MaR-V-iN Converts a white/black background into transparency. Recognizes shadows and makes them semi-transparent.
