2. Select a
colour from the palette. If you want to paste a picture of
the tree over another picture then you should choose a black background.
3. Click the
"OK" button.
With a black
background you will not be able to see the shadow. It is
still there and will show up if the tree picture is pasted over another
picture. You should use a different colour background to position the
shadow in Little Stick. When you are satisfied, change the background
to black and save the picture.
The shadow is in
the alpha (or mask) layer. So you will need to save
the picture in a format that uses alpha layers such as TIFF. Some
formats such as JPEG do not have alpha layers.
Change the
colours of the bark, leaves and fruit.
You can set the colour of bark, leaves and fruit separately to whatever
you like.
4. Select a
picture to use as a wood texture. Photographs of bark are
particularly good.
5. Click on the
Tile check box to tile the texture along the tree if
you have a very simple texture. Little Stick tries it's best to wrap
your texture as seamlessly as possible.
