If anyone is mad enough to want it they're welcome to it

Mate a couple questions if you dont mind,
how do you get such a clean cut around your players? I find it so terribly hard and the after effect is rough.

Thanks

 

[Saltires]

how do you get such a clean cut around your players?

1. First, open the sig file I want to put the render (pic of player) on.
2. Then open the picture file (cricinfo is good for pictures).
3. Then use the 'Polygonal Lasso' tool to select the are of the picture I want - I usually select quite a large area so I can move the render around on the sig if I want to.
4. Next I use the 'move' tool to drag the selected area onto the sig file.
5. If you then select the 'Lasso' tool again and right-click on the render, select 'Free Transform' to resize the render. If you hold down shift while resizing it, it will keep its proportions.
6. Use the 'erase' tool to delete the parts around the player that you don't want.

If that's too complicated I could show you with screenshots

I've just done this sig for someone on another forum:

It's very simple, but my PC crashed and I've lost all my brushes so I thought that I would try out this new "blast" idea.

sry for the double post : I've decided to put examples of my sigs on the first post so people can see what they'll be getting when they request stuff.

Cricketman's sig is ready:
