hello all.
i m posting a tut on making an outline around a person.
the tut is already posted but i think thts a lil difficult one atleast for me so thought to share this one with screen shots.
credits will be appreciated but not required.
just dont claim them as urs cos i made them myself.
thanks.
so moving on to the tutorial.
1. first take a picture u want to put the outline. i ll be using this one.
2. Select the lasso/free hand tool and select the picture precisely like this.
3. Now open a new image bigger than ur selected photo and flood fill it with the colour u like ur outline as. i took a 400X400 pixels new image n flood fill it with black colour.
4. Later copy the image u just selected with the free hand tool.
5. Then paste it as a new selection on the new image u had flood filled with the colour. u ll have marching ants outside the image like this.
6. Now go to Selections > Modify > Expand . U ll get a box open there. Type the number u want the thikness ur outline to be. i ll put 5 and press OK. U may get the message saying tht u need to defloat the image. just press OK. Now the marching ants have gone further i.e they have expanded like this.
7. Last step, just go to edit > paste as new image and Yipee! U have what u want!
My Result: (not so good)
if anyone has doubts can ask me .
thnx for reading 😊
