Hello! Rathena! I just want to know how to create a perfect banner i mean without those pink beside the text. its annoying.

First, you have to work with a transparent background (or a solid background can work, but transparent is better?). Then you need to have a final size of the image. Dont resize it when it has the magenta color present or you will mess all your work.

 

Second when you have the size you will already use, then, use the "paint bucket" tool and select the color #ff00ff disable the anti alias option, and fill only the transparent background with the magenta color. You can set a tolerance of 10, 20, or 40, it depends of how much you want to make it automatic.

 

Then just save it as bmp file.

 

Edit: after using the paint bucket tool, and if you want better results (for example there are still white borders present), use the pencil tool in photoshop and begin drawing a magenta border manually to the edges that you can see didn't become as expected with the automatic tool.

put the image a black border or paint this border with the color RGB 255/0/255 try it ^^

make sure your outlines aren't gradient color and the opacity is 100%

If you are using photoshop, try to turn off the -Anti aliasing- option at the time you are using any kind of paint tool.

How about if i put a picture and  resize it? still have a feather how can i do if i put a picture and resize ,automaticaly the soft and pure edge still the same with normal size.

put the image a black border or paint this border with the color RGB 255/0/255 try it ^^

how can i put a black border?  in other way? i use to edit stroke and drop shadow to have a border but on the edge the color is not solid its like about to fade

look at my work. unchecked "anti alias" , the edge still fading

and when i put a picture in photoshop and resize its like on that picture That i upload, fading edge

 

so how can i fix it?
