Minoeman Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 Hello, I need help on something that's been bugging me and making my images not turn out so well. As you can see on these images, there are still :AntiAliasingOff: even though I've use ant-aliase plug in and feather MANY times to try to help it. These are just SOME of the images I have with that problem. (The dragon) (Mewtwo) (everything except the background) My method is I use anti-alias/feather, alias, anti-alias/feather, anti-alias/feather, alias, anti-alias/feather and so on and so forth. What is wrong with my method? Should I do it more :?: I can't do it once, that doesn't work. :? And If I do it to much, the image just shrinks down it's pieces, and you can't tell what the heck it is any more. Please, any help? P.S. Apparently, even moderate users need help. :AntiAliasingOff: Quote We should all be...

flip Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 Well, I'm guessing you're using those pics from the web, right? And you're copying, pasting, and using the magic wand tool? (Or something similar to the last step... to get whatever the background was away.) Well, I think it's that you're still leaving behind borders of the pasted images. You're just gonna have to erase them better. If I'm wrong... I feel like a noob. (Which I am.) And, (this is highly unlikely.) are you doing the feather effect and stuff on the right layer?

Simon Brown Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 Have you tried checking "true feather?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hyrule Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 yeah true feather works much better than the other one if you want things gone, but also sometimes if you are resizing images, it makes them :AntiAliasingOff: . thats happened to me before, so if you start out with a smooth :AntiAliasingOn: image, and you resize it to fit your sig, either make your sig huge first than ersize it when your done using ctrl-R, or resize your stock or render to about what you need it to be. And make sure that when you resize it, it is best quality unless itf it is a sprite, in which case make it nearest neighbor.

Minoeman Posted February 23, 2009 Author Share Posted February 23, 2009 Please forgive me for this useless post, a freind of mine just told me how. Tip: feather BEFORE resizing.

PyroTechniques Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 Also, if you really want perfect edges, you might want to check out the Alpha Mask plugin. Also check the alpha masking tutorials (this and this) by Crazy Man Dan. Quote Photobucket Sucks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
