This overlay is killing me! Send help

Hey Epi babes :two_hearts:, I’ve picked up on how to create my own overlays pretty decently- but this one, I just CAN NOT get. The shadows, the way it blends into the seat and objects on the table is what I’m having trouble with. Would anyone be willing to help me out here? I need the table crated into an overlay so I can place a character into the “seat”.

I can probably do it, though where did you get this background?

Are you planning on always having the table overlay there? Because if so, you don’t have to crop it out. You can just cut out the table and its objects as one piece and then place it back onto the original photo, since it will cover the existing table anyways. It’ll obviously look weird without the overlay, but when it’s there it’ll look completely normal.

Yeah, I am!
I thought the same thing ! That’s what I tried but when you look at the points of the table they’re not even (like, the top right corner is higher than the top left one) so when I go to just cut out the table- the actual seat ends up being cut out too. I hope that makes sense lol

Plus the pillows pissed me off too :roll_eyes:

I may have done it?

Omg, yes- let me go try it. Thank you so much- the corners of the table were making me lose my mind

You should be able to spot direct it right on top of the background since I kept the size and didn’t move it?

Yeah- I think I should be able too, but if not I can just change the origin point and rotate it a bit. Thank you so much bby! :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

I know that you told @IrisLevont that the image wasn’t copyrighted, but Pinterest images are not safe to use as this is never easily proven.
As you can see below, a simple image search shows it used along with other angles on a copyrighted site.


Therefore you are asking other people to edit copyrighted material for use in your episode story, whilst you don’t legally have the right to use it anyway.

As a rule, I never recommend people to use Google or Pinterest for images. You never know where they are coming from, and once you tick that box on the portal, it isn’t episode’s problem if you use copyrighted content, it is your problem instead. So it’s wise to be careful and check things.
