WINNERS

I've PMed the winners. Nobody followed the whole "put your neo name in your post" thing, so I have to PM you guys. Sorry it took so long. My life is hectic right now.



I would like a set featuring one of the following images:

I like the colors black, blue, hot pink, and red. I like sets that have interesting borders and some transparent parts. You can provide your own subtext if you like. I'd like the signature to have my username on it. The avatar doesn't have to.

The deadline is September 10th.

Prizes:
1st place - 25k
2nd place - 15k
3rd place - 10k

If you enter but DON'T win 1st, 2nd, or 3rd, you get 1k for the effort.


Include your Neopets username in your post so I know who to send NP to.



Thanks for entering.

All the links go back to the index page of the website. Unless it's just my computer being weird...

[Shippinator Mandy]

Those images are WAY too big to use. Can you resize them or something?

I just got them from a screenshot site. I was assuming that people who'd make the set would resize them as they saw fit.

[Shippinator Mandy]

Trouble is, Paint won't let me resize.

...Yes, it will.

I might be entering later, Fidds. Though I have no clue who this person is, so subtext might be hard...

Ack...um...something you should know. I only have Paint. So I can't transparentize, or make any of those cool-looking sets with the weird backgrounds that everyone else has. >.<

EDIT:



*cringes*

EDIT: Couldn't find this one on my comp to move to a different host!

But Giffy lets you turn a .bmp file into a .gif file and it can make things transparent too.

I'll try and enter something, but I won't guarentee it.

[Shippinator Mandy]

No, Dawn, Paint only crops. It refuses to resize my pictures.

[everconfused]

Tim, try checking off the draw opaque in Image - that should give you some transparency. Draw opaque is the default in Paint.

And no, I've never been able to get Paint to "crop" - it just resizes and only shows the top of an image for me. Maybe I'm missing something? Very very possible

To get paint to crop an image, you can either manually move the image or change the attributes to edit out the part you want cropped.
