Easy Graphics Using Paint

I know I am always blown away when I see the graphics on some popular Stardoll magazines. Unless one has photo shop or some other high tech paint system, it is very hard to make personal graphics. I only have Paint on my computer and have found a way to make easy graphics, and today I am going to show you all how to make a very simple, non-time consuming graphic.

Step 1: Choose the body type you want from any doll on Stardoll. (In a later demo, I will show you all how to choose any outfit to put on the doll, but to make these graphic easier, I am just going to use an outfit that comes with the dress-up doll.) Once you have done this, press the print screen on your computer.


Step 2: Open paint, and press paste. The image that you were using will show up, and use the dashed box icon(circled in red) to cut the part you want to use. Once you cut the part you want to use, press the undo button(circled in red) and press paste.



Step 3: Repeat Step 1 and 2, but instead of using a doll, use the head of a doll. You will just cut the head off the doll and paste it where the head of the full bodied doll is.


Step 4: Use the color dropped to copy the color of your head by pressing the dropper icon and pressing it by your cheek, neck, or something else. Then press the gallon of paint button and press it all over the full sized dolls body to make it the same shade as the head you pasted on the full bodied doll.

Step 5: When you are done making the full bodied doll the same shade of your head, you are done, and have a graphic made :D

*If you have any question please contact me in the comments or on Stardoll, I know this may sound a bit confusing at first*
