Monkey 252 Posted May 12, 2013 How do most of you make a cutable image out of a photo? Do you just trace it out in another program like coreldraw or similar? Im referring to something like the Elvis or m. monroe head you see floating around and the like. Not going to do them of course but I have a few I would like to try to do but cant seem to get them right, so was curious what methods most of you use that do that. When I try to convert to bitmap that go from there, it just has way too much garbage in it. If you dont want to actually give away the whole secret, thats fine, I just need a nudge in right direction....cause I seem to be lost on this 1. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
