How do you do a good render?

You use the path tool to render properly. Take a look at this video I made on it:



Hope that helps

or you can do it the easy way, that is, if the render has a one color background...
add alpha channel
fuzzy select the background
hit delete to clear it (or you can really work for it by erasing the whole
selection with your eraser tool)

and that should get you a good render...

much better than E's way in E's way i was getting pissed of it cut half my render away

and this is testing 1 2 3


**** well it wont work on here it did work befor may as well just past it on my sig.

yes! ... but it only works best on large images, say at least 800x800? (around there)

and you can always scale it down, when you're done

I dont sorry

i don't know if there are such options with GIMP, but in Photoshop, if the background is white, you can just use the magic wand tool. but before deleting i prefer going to selection>expand so i don't get that white line on the edge. however, if you have an image with a quite "grunge-ish" background, yet which contrasts your render, you can use the megnetic lasso tool and click every now and then.

you MUST save it as a .png fleep
otherwise it wont have a transparent BG

I do save it as a PNG the only ones i know of are GIF's (only us them animateing) and i us the PNG for any other thing.

here, i rendered it to save you the trouble:
