Or you can do what issorlol mentioned. transparent background overlay on a layer of the background selected using the magic wand + lasso. | ||

The DT outlines aren't really sharp enough to cut out, (guy above me), so it kind of looks unnatural. | ||

This was just a quick pen tool job. ![[image loading]](http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a357/xridsi/zeratul_bgchange.jpg) That's something a long the lines of what I meant, the extra layer is good too so you can ctrl-u and muck around with whatever colours you want... | ||

![[image loading]](http://img818.imageshack.us/i/zealpurp.png/) The purple isn't very saturated and I bit dark, but that's super easy to fix. | ||

Sorry but I'm just using Photoshop right now, just know the gradient effect, lomo and that's pretty much it. So how do you that? RBG balance is probably the best way to go. Select the area > augment red, augment blue, lower green. Although tons of other ways could work, changing the hue works pretty well too. | ||

Well, if you've got CS5 you can just select the letters than when you hit delete, the default option will be to replace the deleted section with some automatic guess of what the software thinks it should be based on it's surroundings. It works pretty well although almost always needs a bit of reworking. If you don't have CS5 what would could do is try to use the Clone Stamp Tool (shortcut: S) to try and replace it manually by just copying others parts of the nearby background on top of it. | ||

Holy crap. I want CS5. I use PS7 and had to use the clone stamp. That's awesome. On June 30 2010 12:36 DivinO wrote: Zealot -> DT? Yeah.. I thought it was zeratul, isnt it? | ||
