Default 'Avie' Doll Size - 11-24-2007, 05:29 PM

Okay, so when I make dolls in the 'Personal Dollmaker' section, it always saves with a little space on top, and people in my shop for doll requests keep asking me to narrow down the size, but I don't know how to! Here's an example incase you don't understand:

-->

You can even see that when I save them in my Photobucket, they seem blurry! Someone please help!

Either reply with a link to a website or explain!

After you save them, open them in MS Paint or another photo program. There you can cut out that part fairly easily. Then save them under .jpg, .gif, or .png.

Yep, that's right kiddies. All Twilight characters are made of cardboard. -_-

Another easy solution is to cut down on the building space or to build it in the very top, left corner. Doing both will effectively reduce the size of the space without having to use another program.

*Oh and Hayley, I tryed your solution and it works very well, but then after I go into JASC Animation Shop, how do I take away the white background?

I use iaza: Free Online Image Conversion - Simple & Easy (Images, Graphics, Avatars, Anime ...) for transparencies; it even makes animations transparent! ^^ Just fill in the background with a colour you didn't use on the doll, like lime green, and go there. Then load the image and click on Transparent; follow the instructions from there.
