My first tutorial

2005-02-16T01:47:18Z

That's right, kiddies. I decided to make a tutorial on how to make icons on MSPaint.

Why MSPaint? Because that's the program that I use to make my oh so lovely icons.. X3(Besides, it's the only paint program I have..^^ )

And while making this tutorial, I was also able to make two Genjo Sanzo icons.. ^^;

What I made with my tutorial: (NOTE: YES. You may edit the non-text icon. Just credit me for the base, okie? ^^)

(NOTE: Sorry that all the pics for this tutorial are in .JPG.. ^^;)

*ahem*

- To start things off, open up the folder "My Pictures"(or whatever you named it):

Some helpful tips:
- Don't have your pictures like this:

- Instead, organise your pictures by putting them in folders like so:

Anywho..
- Now open up any folder that has the pic you wanna make into an avatar.(I picked my Sanzo pics folder)

Why you should organize your pictures:
- See how the image is so clear and a bit resized? This is an ideal thing to do, rather than just opening the picture directly in MSPaint:

Say... I really like this picture. I shall make an icon outta it! X3

- Press Ctrl + Prt Sc at the same time.

- Then open MSPaint.

- Once you do, paste your picture by pressing Ctrl + V at the same time.

- Now press the Select button(the outlined square) and crop the area that you wanna make into an icon. Like here:

- Now depending on what size you want to make your icon(I'm making mine 100x100), you'll want to sqaure that(200x200). So crop the area by the squared area.(which means I will be cropping it by 200x200). Just like in this screencap:

- Click on one of the blue squares in the corner. Then shrink the cropped picture by the size you want your icon to be(mine will be 100x100). It should look something like this:

- Then copy that cropped pic(use Ctrl + C) and open up a new MSPaint file.

- Then paste your pic. Then add a border around the picture like so:

- Then save your icon in a .PNG format. And it'll look like so!:

If that's all you want, you don't have to read anymore.
Want text on this bad boy? Then read more.

...
So you want some text eh? Fine.. I'll show ya(cuz I'm so nice.. XD)

- Ok..so open up your newly icon that you just made in MSPaint(duh..XD). Then think about what text you wanna add.

For my Sanzo icon, I'm gonna put "Do you want to DIE?"

- Now make some room like so:

- Then click on the text button(that would be the button with the A on it) and type in what you wanna add. Like so:

Whoa! Two different texts! How did I do it? Lookie here:
- I typed "Do you want to" in Arial, font size 8, not in bold. Like so:

- Then I typed in "DIE?" in Bradley Hand ITC, font size 16, in bold. Like so:

Now then..back to the tutorial.. ^^;

- Magnify the text(click on the magnifying glass and zoom in on the text). Then add a border to the letters like here:

A helpful hint:
- Use the color black and use the smallest paint brush. ^^

Anywho...

- Do this until your words look like this:

- Now that you're done with that, highlight the words, "Do you want to" like so:

(NOTE: MAKE SURE YOU CLICK THE TRANSPARENT BUTTON)

- Then move those words to anywhere you want on your icon like this:

- Do the last two steps again for the word "DIE". Like so:

- Once you do that, color in the parts where it's green with whatever color you want.

- Once you are satisfied, save your new icon in .PNG format, and viola! You just made a fantasic icon!

This is how mine came out by the end of this tutorial:

THE END.

If you have any questions regarding this tutorial, or if you're having trouble, please leave me a comment on this post or contact me via AIM(my SN is ChibiMilly13).

Thank you for reading this! I hope that will help you out!
