Use the magic wand tool and select the white with a tolerance level of zero, then press the delete key. If you have multiple layers then you will need to either merge them or delete the white from all of them. |

I'm not sure I like the idea of one person doing it for the entire time the badges are being made, I much prefer the idea of it being an open competition each time. That why we always will get the best badge on offer rather than a badge from the "best" artist which may not always be up to standard. As well as this I think that the person who made the winning badge ought to be an honourary member or have some recognition for his/her efforts. |

I did that and it still didn't work. I've saved it as a jpeg with no background on it at all, it's showing the grey and white tiles. |

I didn't think so, there was just a lot of talk about it in the old thread so I decided to include it. |
|
There were going to be multiple badges made by me, it's just that the three legged one is really hard to fit onto that little badge whilst still making it easy to see what it is. So far I've got a skeleton with 3 legs that looks quite good. I'm very tempted to just put a shoe on there to show the marathon part of it. |

Well this badge should make sense for an insane advanced task! |

Hey, has anyone thought of changing the wings themselves? |
|
Yes, I might do that actually. I'll be home all night since I'm running a race tomorrow, so maybe I'll mess around with that. |
|
How's this: |

That's awesome ninja! Would it be possible to make the advnaced one glow alittle? |

Great job so far Goldney, I love the fish badge! However...green doesn't really compliment the silver though. I think the badges would look more "badge-like" if they had wings and some small emblem in the center. Perhaps for the skeleton badge...the skeletons head as the emblem maybe? |
|
Things are not as they seem
Seeker, or anyone, what is the maximum size the badge can be? |
|
I think I'd have trouble telling those apart if they weren't right next to each other, so they need to be more obviously gold and silver. Otherwise very pretty. Are you thinking about putting an emblem to represent the task in the middle, or just generic for every month? |
|
I agree with Moonbeam, those animated badges are awesome but the colours need to be a little bit more distinctive so that we can tell the difference, good job though, i love them |

The only reason I ask is when I tried making some before, they were small and hard to get any writing or anything on them. So if we had some max limits it would make getting an image in the middle of something a lot easier! |
|
Okay, i get you, do you think that writing is necessary though, i know what you mean though, in photoshop it is hard to work with a small image and put text into it. But working with images is quite easy. I'll post some of mine later when i get them done. |
|
I agree with Adam on size issues, the current badges are so small it's incredibly hard to get a decent picture on them. |
|
*............*............*
Yeah, i agree that it is difficult to put pictures on them but if you make them too big they will add a ton of mass to the posting space on a thread. Maybe it could move its place or maybe even someone who has completed the task gets a special border around their posts. But if you wanted to increase the size of the picture you would have to consider how much space it would take up on the page. Its the same with signatures, they are limited for a reason. |
|
LS I am not talking about making them huge, they are currently 101x19 - All I am saying is making them just 110x25 or something would be much easier to work with... But like I said, I asked what the space we have it, and if it looks shit can always go back to what we have now. |
|
I was only saying that if you were intending to, but i see what you mean now. We could definately increase the size, but surely if you changed it to 110x25 it would not make much difference. I think it would be good to increase it a bit more than that. When i said big before i was thinking big as in avatar size, that was what worried me. But if you double the size it may work well. |
|
Ah right no, I don't mean avatar size lol. |
|
I'm glad you think that, there is some space there and it could be used up. You got any examples yet? I can make the images but i am finding it hard to find any images to put in the middle that suit. I wonder where Goldney got the fish image from for his badge? But still could you show me an example of what you have in mind Adam? |
