jnc1951 Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 Hopefully I can explain my issue correctly so you all can understand what I need. I'm new to working with programs like Paint.net, so if I use the wrong term, please bare with me. I have some imported templates in jpg format. (They have been converted from Adobe Photoshop to jpg so they could be opened in other programs. I am attaching one to this post.) I need to be able to apply a pre-made design to the different parts of the template, moving it around so it is positioned correctly and will produce a good looking finished product. I have multiple templates and multiple designs to apply. I'm thinking this involves layers, but after going through a tutorial on layers, I'm not understanding how I do it. Can anyone help? Thanks!

AndrewDavid Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 (edited) Hi @jnc1951 Welcome to the forum They say a picture is worth a thousand words so here goes 3 Layers Bottom Layer - your template Middle layer - the green changed to Pink for easier selection Top layer - your pattern Once complete - deselect the middle and bottom layers (or delete) Save as JPG and you are good to go.

Pixey Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 Hello @jnc1951 and Welcome. I would go about it this way, if you have to have each template in a different design. 1. Import the template. 2. Use the magic wand to select the white areas and then click delete. 3. Carefully remove the Front Toe to its own layer. (I used Lasso Select to carefully trace around the shape, then cut and paste into new layer.) 4. Same with the Tongue - to its own layer. 5. You are left with Right and Left on their own layer. ` clickable 6. With the Magic wand, select a layer - I've used The Front Toe. Invert selection and move up to the texture, and delete. `clickable Quote How I made Jennifer & Halle in Paint.net My Gallery | My Deviant Art "Rescuing one animal may not change the world, but for that animal their world is changed forever!" anon.
