xin chào there! ~ I decided to make this step bởi step bài viết on how I make an biểu tượng just because I felt bad because I couldn't include some people's entries in the số phiếu bầu of the anime biểu tượng Contest because they don't follow the rules given. I'm not really sure where to put this, but since the anime biểu tượng Contest is here, I decided to post it in this spot.
Making các biểu tượng are really easy. In fact, bạn don't really need a fancy software to make one. bạn could just always crop a picture and re-size it on your computer. If bạn want to add some fancy effects, bạn could always use a bức ảnh editing software hoặc a site. I'll danh sách the ones I use later.
But let's start from the basics.
The site I'll be using for this tutorial is link It's a really easy site to use, and it's what I normally use to chỉnh sửa my icons.
Step 1:Upload your image
Of course, before bạn chỉnh sửa anything, bạn need to choose an image that you're going to make into an icon. For this example, I will be using a screencap of Giotto from Katekyo Hitman Reborn!
Once bạn have chosen your image, click the Edit a photo button in the upper left part of the page.
Choose your bức ảnh and click okay.
Step 2: Crop your photo
Once you're image is fully uploaded, click the crop button on the toolbar.
Pick square from the drop down menu.
The grid indicates the area of the picture that will be cropped.
When done deciding what are will be cropped, click Apply.
Step 3: Adding effects
If bạn want, bạn could click the Auto Adjust button on the toolbar for it to automatically adjust some problems of the image.
I also sometimes adjust the Colors on mine.
I normally try to find the right balance, but when I'm lazy I just click on the Auto Adjust button as well.
When you're done with the basic adjustments press Apply and di chuyển on.
After that, bạn could try the various effects. This site has a number of effects to experiment on. To see all the effects available, click on the biểu tượng shaped like a bubbling potion bottle on the left side.
Here comes the fun part.
bạn could use all the effects in the right side, but make sure not to use the ones with a little crown on them, because bạn need to pay for some of the effects. (Just make do with the free ones, they're better in my opinion!) If bạn like a certain effect, click on it and adjust the settings.
If you're happy with the xem trước just simply click the Apply button.
bạn could also add text, stickers, frames and textures! Just click on the buttons in the same line as the effects to explore more.
Step 4: Resizing an icon
When you're done with adding the effects, go back to the first page you've been to.
Click on the Resize button on the bottom part of the page.
Make sure that the size bạn input is between 100x100 and 200x200. I normally use 200x200.
When done, click Apply.
Step 5: Saving
Once you're done resizing, click on the Save on the upper portion of the screen.
Click Save to my Computer to save it.
And that's the last step. =) I hope this helped. There are other good editing sites out there, but I got used to this one when I was just starting. ~ So don't yourself to just one site.
If you're done making icons, why not enter the biểu tượng contest? ~ Haha advertising much. :P But if bạn want to join, here's the link
