We need an option to easily change your FF background, immediately to the right of the option to change your spray. I've already made a pic of it somewhere, oh here it is:

Which leads to the obvious question..How do you change the background??

I know there are some things to consider. These are more things that i would ask about.

1) Take an ingame screenshot??
2) Save it somewhere on your harddrive?? (Is there a particular format it should be saved in??)

etc...

If you are wondering how he did this, i'll tell ya how.


Open an image in photoshop; dupe it.

Now you have two layers of the same image, go to the top layer(the dupe), make it Overlay. Next, go to Filters>Blur> Gaussian Blur. I usually set it to 2.45, also depends on how dark/light the image is already.

*here's an example for ya on how it works on "darker" images - http://ffalpha.net/previews/ffalpa_option1.png "

Genius? Why yes I am!

I eat my smarties everyday!

*god damn sig tutorial readers*



Quick and Easy, not 5 minutes to load a tutorial just so the everyday user gets confused.

By the way, you'll pretty much get the same effect with a little bit of tweaking with the layer opacity.

I shall now rape a cat's face with some random dog's ass, why? because you sir are ignorant. KTHXBAI!

I refuse to believe!

Plus yours doesn't have the crane, so it obviously sucks.
