Poseidon's How to's Issue 1 Photoshopping Skylanders

Hello and I am Poseidon133. Welcome to my first actually guide (Blog posts don't really count) In my blog series I will explain advanced stuff, so firstly I will not be explaining how to make logos, that has been covered by BHCreations. The are alternitives to Photoshop you can use (Eg. Paint.net and GIMP) This issue will explain things like recolouring skylanders, making covers and anything else. If there is something missing please let me know.

Basic Varients
These type are the easiest to make, so not much explaining is needed. First get an image of the skylander you want (If you want to aviod work get one with a white background so you don't have to go through the trouble of erasing the background.) Go into Layers- Duplicate Layer, (or Ctrl-J). Now select the magic wand tool (Shortcut kay is W) and select the background. Most of the times it will select the backgrounf and not the skylander (Sometimes it doesn't recognise the background from the skylander so it selects some of the skylander. Next step is to select the Eraser Tool (Shortcut Key is E) The Shotcut Keys are convenient here as they are right next to each other. If it only selected the background, then it will not erase the skylander no matter how hard you try.
