I am hoping to get some help with this. I have done a little skinning but I will be the first to admit graphics are my weak point. I am sure what would take someone to produce in short order takes me 3 times as long. I have Photoshop but unfortunately I have not been able to learn it well and utilize its full potential. Up until this point I am basically using it for editing photos. A rather expensive photo editor I must say.
One of the things I like to do is make sysmetrix skins. I enjoy it because I find the program very easy to work with. My problem is I suck big time at producing the graphics for the skins.
One of the problems I am facing is producing a png file on top of a magic pink background. Try not to laugh to hard but my method of choice has been to take the png file and paste it on top of the magic pink background using Microsoft digital image suite. It is fast and easy but produces crappy results for me. When I use it as a background in sysmetrix the background is invisible but there is always a magic pink border around the image. Because of this I can't simply use one file as my background image. I need to use the png file as a graphic over top of the bmp background. If that pink border was invisible like the rest of the magic pink background I could simply use the bmp image without the extra graphic png on top of the bmp.
So I am asking the experts how is the best way to add a Magic Pink background or place an image on a magic pink background? Is there an easy way that I just have not learnt or will I have to ask or even pay someone to do it for me ?, lol.
Thank you everyone
