Heroes PNGs

Posted by: gawariel

I have added 11 new cut-outs to the site.
They’re all cut-outs from promotional pictures from the show Heroes.


I used the cut-outs to experiment on how to cut out the hair, because that’s the part I’m always struggling with. I tried out several techniques and several different brushes. Not all methods were succesful, so not all cut-outs are all that good. But I hope you’ll be able to use them anyway ;)

Enjoy! And have a good weekend!

    Hi, Charlotte!

    Your work is so lovely. I found this website by surfing in from http://atastypixel.com/blog/2009/03/30/great-elegant-grunge-mod/ while I was googling about how to modify the Elegant-Grunge WordPress Theme.

    What I especially love is how you placed a non-repeating graphic at the top of your content (images/body-top.png.) I wanted to do that for my brand-spanking-new WP blog but didn’t think it was possible until I saw your beautiful site.

    Being the plucky internet detective that I am, I thought that I’d be able to figure out how you did it, but alas, I am unable to solve the puzzle. I even looked at your css and the page source to see if I could find a clue but the answer eludes me.

    I’m sorry to trouble you with this trifle, and I’d be very grateful if you could tell me where to find out how to place an image like you did.

    Warm Regards,

    Jill Gray James

    Well, first you must know that I have practically rewritten the whole Elegant Grunge theme to fit my own needs. I can’t really remember what I kept and whet I rewrote from the original theme, but I will try and explain to you how I made the body-images to work.

    The body part has two divs to begin with: <div id=”content-container”> and <div id=”content”> The id’s content-container and content are used in the CSS code to make the image layering.

    First content-container.

    #content-container {
    width: 1107px!important;
    width: 100%;
    margin: 0 auto;
    background: url(images/body.png) repeat-y top center;
    }

    This id contains the repeating body image.

    Secondly container

    #content {
    width: 1107px!important;
    width: 100%;
    margin: 0 auto;
    background: url(images/body-top.png) no-repeat top center;
    }

    Here I added the none-repeating image of the flowers.

    All the other content, including the sidebar, are inside these two div’s.

    I hope this explains it a bit for you.

    Kind regards and thank you for the nice comments.

    Charlotte.
