How to make blank tags
I just learned how to make blank tags yesterday, so I thought I would share what I learned here with you.
For the first lesson, I will refer to the first tag I made which is shown below.
I will assume that you have a working knowledge of Image Magick.
Making tags is time consuming but, not really hard to do.
Tags can be used for awards, name tags, or calling card for leaving behind in guest books you sign.
Have fun and let your imagination soar.
Ok, Let's get started making a tag like the one above.
The first thing you will need to do is get a background and a gif that you want to use to make your tag. Now you are ready to begin.
Note that the size I give for you to learn is not chisled in stone. You can make it what ever size you wish.
- <1#/li>Go to Image majick and size the graphic you will be using to: Height-100 Width-100.
<> - <2#/li>Transload this re-sized image, or upload it into your scrapbook. Write down it's URL.
<> - <3#/li>Now take the background you chose to Image Majick and re-size it to: Height-175 Width-300
<> - <4#/li>Click on decorate
<> - <5#/li>Set the border dementions to eight.
<> - <6#/li>In the space where you would normally add your choice of border color, type in none.
<> - <7#/li>Click on the radio dial button to set it to raise the edge.
<> - <8#/li>Click on the button to decorate.
<> - <9#/li>Click on composite, when you get to the next screen.
<> - <10#/li>Type in the URL of your image you want on the tag.
<> - <11#/li>Click the button to set the location of the image on west.
<> - <12#/li>Click the button to composite the image,
<> - <13#/li>View your tag, if you are happy with the result click on the out button.
<> - <14#/li>Transload or upload the tag and you are done.
Congratulations you have made your first tag.
