Preparing the Image in Adobe Photoshop

We are now ready to create a new image for our tee. Open Adobe Photoshop. Make sure that the "layers, channels, paths" window is visible. If it isn't, click "Window" in the upper left corner and scroll down to "layer" and click. That will bring it up. Now, the first step is to prepare the image you wish to use on your shirt. Open the image you wish to use in Adobe Photoshop. Your image should be free of any background. What you want to see on the shirt is all that should be in that layer. Use the magic eraser tool to remove any unwanted background, until all that is showing is your image over a transparent background. **Note - Try to use a high quality image as the quality does deteriorate a little once in the game.**

Editing the Image

Now you are ready to open the image we exported from the TSR Workshop. So, open that image in Adobe photoshop. Using the original image as a guide, resize your new graphic and copy and paste it as a new layer onto the original image. **hint - clicking "Ctrl-T" will allow you to easily tweak the size of your new image once it is pasted over the original. Just make sure the new image's layer is selected in the "layers" tab. Once you are finished resizing, just click on the move tool and apply the changes.** Once you are happy with the size and location of your new graphic, under the "layers" tab of the window, select "background", then click the little garbage can delete button.

Results

What you will be left with after deleting the background image is your new graphic or logo with a transparent background.

Making an Alpha Channel

Now we need to make an Alpha Channel for our image to show up properly on our shirt. Luckily this is quite easy! First we will duplicate our image by right clicking the header, click "duplicate". A window will pop up, then click "OK".

Locating Brightness/Contrast

Now click on "Image", pause over "Adjustments", and scroll down to "Brightness/Contrast" and click.

Brightness and Contrast

With your duplicate layer selected, slide the "Contrast" bar all the way to the left and the "Brightness" bar all the way to the right, then click "OK". Your image should now be completely white. If it isn't, bring the "Brightness/Contrast" window up again and repeat moving the "Brightness" bar all the way to the right. You DON'T need to repeat adjusting the contrast.

Filling in the Background

Using the paint bucket tool and black, fill in the background of the image by clicking once only. And now you have your Alpha Channel.

Copying Finished Alpha

Select the entire image and click "copy".

Applying the Alpha Channel

With the original image selected, click on the "Channels" tab and select the alpha channel.

Pasting the Alpha Channel

Now, paste the alpha channel we created.

Flatten Image

Click on the "Layers" tab and select "background" if it isn't already. Then click on "Layers" in the upper left corner of photoshop and scroll down to "Flatten Image" and click. Your image will now have a white background. Don't worry if the logo was white and no longer shows up very well, it will in the game.

Saving the DDS File

We are now ready to save the image we created. Click "File" in the upper left corner of Photoshop, and then "Save". The DDS plugin window will pop up. Make sure it is set to : DXT5 ARGB 8bpp / interpolated alpha. Now click "save", again.

On Aug 7, 2009 kittyispretty69 wrote: | Unpublish| Delete: You can add graphics to clothing that do not have stencils to begin with by enabling stencils for that clothing item. I only chose one with stencils already on the item so it would be easier for the beginner, as you would have the original stencil as a guide to place your new one.

If you look in the forums or at tutorials to create patterns and see what other programs people are using to create the patterns, that will tell you what other programs you could use because patterns are also saved in the DDS format.

On Aug 12, 2009 styphon wrote: | Unpublish| Delete: Hyprekia: Your welcome. It took me ages to figure that one out Kitty: I've found a decent size I can work with through trial and error. 768x768 seems to work well. The next problem I have is every time I import the image there's a redish grey border around the image. Any ideas?
On Aug 12, 2009 kittyispretty69 wrote: | Unpublish| Delete: Styphon, I see what you mean with the size, but the size you should be using is 1024x1024. That may solve your second problem with the border around your image as well.
On Aug 12, 2009 kittyispretty69 wrote: | Unpublish| Delete: Oh, and Styphon, I noticed the image exported from that item of clothing does not include the alpha channel so you must add the alpha channel to that image.

On Aug 14, 2009 poundingheart wrote: | Unpublish| Delete: Hello, Great Tutorial, written so even this dummy can understand. Well Done I have a question though, in step Editing the image, u say to delete the background which I do. Then I go ahead do the alpha channel etc and that works fine. Further on u say to Flatten image u 1st click on background in Layers but I dont have a background just Layer 1. and if I flatten image the background doesnt go white only the logo is white, am I doing something wrong? I know this is a silly question but I was just wondering. cheers
On Aug 14, 2009 kittyispretty69 wrote: | Unpublish| Delete: twitunes- If you are having trouble with the DDS plugin, please try reinstalling it. Breezy08-Adobe Photoshop is not a free program. If you purchased the program and are having problems installing, you will need the contact Adobe. MemoryBullet- If your new graphic is only showing up in the shape of the original stencil you exported, than you have not altered the original alpha channel. You need to remake the alpha channel and copy and paste it over the original alpha channel. poundingheart- It sounds like you are doing it correctly, but of course without standing over your shoulder and watching you I can't know for sure. Clicking on Layer 1 is fine, then flatten the image, but the graphic should stay the same and the background should become white. Is your graphic on a transparent background?

Jennifer_R-I am only assuming, but I would guess it would work. I am running an older version of Photoshop (7), so I would guess a newer version would just be better. Hopefully someone will post who knows for sure.

On Aug 23, 2009 kittyispretty69 wrote: | Unpublish| Delete: If your new image is in the shape of the original stencil, the alpha channel has not been altered. Unfortunately, I don't know how to make the changes in paintshop as I always use photoshop. Look in the patterns forum as you also use the alpha channel for patterns and I'm sure it is explained how to make an alpha channel in paintshop.

I had a little bit of confusion as some things didn't match up with how Photoshop and the plug-in were working on my computer (namely in creating the alpha channel), but within a minutes I made my first creation! I think part of the confusion for others might involve software version. I used CS4, and it was relatively easy to figure out (though I learned I need to edit the stencil image a bit more next time to prevent some of it from disappearing in the alpha... But a shirt was made, and it's passable, especially for a first attempt, so I'm happy with it). Thanks again!

On Oct 22, 2009 kitriana wrote: | Unpublish| Delete: Alright, Great tutorial love the step by step, however I ran into a few problems while following it. Brightness/Contrast just didnt work for me, (prolly would if I clicked a trillion times) so instead I chose Hue/Saturation and slided the Lightness bar all the way to the right! works like a charm. Secondly I found it easier to add a new layer below the stencil when creating the alpha layer and coloring that black instead my stencil was a bit flimsy! and 3 but not least I got all confused in the end, when you're talking about importing you say "Start by clicking the "Import" button located directly under the "Export" button" I assumed you meant under file (cus I had closed the window) wich didnt work! so instead I just clicked around for a while, eventually comming to the conclusion it would be worth a shot to click "..." out of stencil A, and there it was - Import. Otherwise Great Tutorial! just wanted to let you know what little blondes like me gets confused about

I have CS4 Portable which is the one I'm used to and it wouldn't install my plugins so I had to use the other. BUT. If the alpha is an interesting shape you can still make brilliant designs - for instance a shirt that was once Obama's face, filled in green with a Teletubby on. Cute.
