It took me about 10 minutes, which includes removing the original background via WP and converting the image into a GIF with transparent background.
I assume with Photoshop it probably would take less long, but being the stubborn WP user I am... :)

"Astro Forever" wrote:It depends of the background. If it's really dark, it can be more difficult, but otherwise, with Photoshop, a few minutes.

If I'm to remove the background of an image with low contrast I slightly lighten it up by using the gamma correction, so I'm able to easily percept the character's lines to cut on. Once the background is entirely removed, I set the gamma settings back to normal so the character regains the contrast it has had before. Just my own way of doing. ;)

With Paint, maybe a little more but probably not much more (Strange Wings will confirm, he is the Paint master here!).

:lol: Thanks for the honor, but I'm far from being one. And Photoshop just doesn't pay off for the lousy stuff I use to paste together. :p

LOL, I was thinking the same! It's got to hide some evil badass PEZ candies in there. They will alter your consciousness I tell ya! :d evil:

I know of quite a few people who have said these very words, now each of them are having about 5 or 6 children. You'll never know... :D

It looks like a bootleg. I've been seeing a lot of products that are just promotional artwork (especially with Sonic and Sailor Moon) being put on stuff like bags and clothing.

You're welcome! :D I have that issue; there was no muscleman contest, and I guess they ran out of cover ideas. But it was still bad otherwise. :lol:

LOL. :w00t: Anyways, I found two of the creepiest things EVER.

"Astro Boy 1.0" and "Astro Boy 2.0". Apparently they're little carved statues that judge your soul from afar.

I was also looking at Dragonball: Evolution action figures (both are terrible; do not go near them) and saw the Yamcha figure. First I was disturbed that Yamcha had a hipster design, but then it dawned on me...

ImageImage
Yamcha looks like the big guy in 2003 Skunk's gang! It works better with a clearer picture, though.[/QUOTE]


Holy Geeze! That first statue scared the living daylights outta me!

Wonder who wrote the question of 'it will not sell' lolz
