Vindictam13 Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 (edited) The first layer you start with is the background, I want to know how to scale/re-size it around the image imported. I am trying to create my own Minecraft skin, so I want to re-size the entire default skin image so I can work with finer detail. But i need to create a border around the original image so I can re-size it back to its proper size to be successfully uploaded to the Minecraft webiste as my skin. I cannot make a border because if I do with its current state the border will go over the first outer line of pixels of the image; I just want it to be a pixel outside the image, not on it. I hope I have been clear enough. Please ask for specifications when I'm not that clear. Thank you for any help. (please pardon the Title, I just realized the mistake x.x) Edited December 7, 2013 by Vindictam13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
