He said render. A render would of been just the guy, with a transparent background, instead of black.
Dude Highlight you understand taking out the black is one of the easiest things to do. It is basically a render, all you need is 3 seconds.
I use Planet Renders v3 Its a site filled with renders already cut out .. If you use GIMP all you do then is use the magic wand and cut the black out .. I'm not sure if Mr Kennedy is on the site though .. Worth a look i guess ..
sorry about the fingers and the bottom of his shirt, i was sort of rushed. if you want, i can go back and fix it, but those can easily be covered up by a brush or something. oh and erase the KK symbol. ive just seen people put those in their renders
wow.. well i think its better than mine.. but then again mine was supposed to be like uber simple. good job
