[Moon_dream]

Hi! I would like to learn how to make overlays, yo be specific the points ones. Like in the “My alien lover” if you have not seen it, go check it out it is Can anyone help me?
I need actual overlay
I was thinking about a circles (pink with a heart on it and a black with a breaking heart, lavender with plus and purple with minus)

the easiest way to make overlays is on a mobile device, you may need to download a backround removing app but after that you can overlay away!

Can try creating some on ibis paint

Overlay help Pleaseee!

When you open ibis paint. Click on my gallery then the + button on bottom left. You’ll then get this screen… [image] Choose a canvas size. Then on the bottom left you’ll see either the paint brush or eraser … [image] Use the eraser to delete anything from a background. You can also use the magic wand tool but this is only suitable for deleting white backgrounds. Click on the number in the white box on bottom right. This is your layer tool. Change the background to the grey and white checked…

KISSPNG is not a safe page - almost all of their png are for personal use only = if you use it in the episocde story you violate author rights… The episode will not check this for you.thqat means if thay approve it doesn’t mean it doesn’t violate author rights and if ever author finds out you have used it - all the consequences go to you directly.

I haven’t read the story you refer to but in general, there are several ways to have an overlay.

1) you need overlay to be cut off existing background - for example, to cut out table so you can place people behind it.

This you can do in any program that can make such modifications to a picture. I use GIMP …you can find some tips on how gimp works here

but it is not the easiest program to use (it has a lot of features and therefore it might be confusing on the beginning). but there are also many apps.

2) you need specific overlay like owl, lightning, snowball…atc

either again you find a picture having it and cut it out like above
or look for png files - but look on safe pages like pixabay (reasons are explained above - author rights)

Or if you have learnd basis how to draw in any digital painting system you can do it completely by yourself.

In case you cant work in the programs like gimp - go here to the art resources and try to ask - here are always people willing to share and it might be the quickest way how to get what you are looking for…or if you are lucky somebody who can drow might be willing to make it for you. This community is very supportive and I am sure with one or another way you will get the overlay you need.
