Wasn't sure what side this was for as you didn't say or give any mention so I assumed it was for Yuri.

How do you add backgrounds to your cameos?

do you have .shp builder? Theres a file in it that has a bunch of backgrounds. Just copy you picture over it in paint, and then copy to .shp builder.

@DaFool: Yeah I have SHP Builder, but the problem is, if I copy my picture over the background in paint it also copies the blue screen on which the unitpicture is.

basically, you just set the blue to be the background colour, and then set the paste to have the background be transparent. After that you just move the image over the background.

Simple.

If you have SHP file extension installed,go to properties,make an printscreen,paste in Paint,cut the cameo part,and save it.

Then,using irfanview(or phtoshop if you have,and prefer it)resize it to 60x48.

Then,enjoy your results.*

*PS,you can also view it in SHP editor,after you finished the work on it in the editor,b4 you save it,take the zoom from 2 to 1. Wink
