Templates Digital
How do I put a digital picture into this template?
My husband is a musician, and his birthday is coming up.
I'm planning to make him a guitar-shaped cake and I want to use a customized pick as a cake topper.
I found a website to order the pick from.
They can print photo images onto their picks.
I have a picture of our son in a black t-shirt and fohawk holding a red rose already on my computer.
I've already downloaded this template: http://www.mybadges.co.uk/templates/photopick.jpg onto my computer from the website.
They say I'm supposed to put the image I want inside the template, how I want it to be shown, and then send it back to them.
I don't know how to do that, I'm not very computer savvy.
Could anyone advise me on how I can get the image I want inside the template?
Do I need like a photoshop program or anything like that?
Thank you.
Save the template to your computer, I am guessing you have windows, open 2 instances of "Paint" one with the pick template, one with the photo.
If you only have one copy of the photo MAKE A COPY by saving it with a different name!!
Use the transparent selection tool (in windows 7) or deactivate it in older versions and then drag the selection around the pick shape if it worked you should be able to drag the shape around and see through the white areas. (Experiment till you get it right, if you make a mess of the template, just don`t save it and download again, select undo if you mess things up until it goes back to the original)
When you have only the black outline of one of the picks selected copy it, then go to the copy of your picture and select paste. move the shape so it is where you want it to be (With your son in the middle, then use the square select to select both the picture and frame, copy it and paste it into the template window. do the same for the front and back image, then save it and send it to them. if you want the same picture on the front and back, paste it twice. don`t worry if there is image outside the outline as they don`t seem to care about that.
One last thing, if your image is to big, shrink your image before putting the template there, I am guessing they can only accept that size.
Good luck.
