    The Art of Making Dope Profiles! - Teach me ;3

    Hello Hello!

    I was wondering if anyone could show me how to do a couple of things when it comes to designing a profile on FFR:
    How to;

    - not make the background image duplicate about a million times when you try and put in on your profile. And instead have one big graphic that covers your whole prof.

    - make your profile image as a part of a bigger picture when you enter the profile.

    If you are interested in helping out, please either comment under the post, pm me here or on discord - ๓kx¢3#1770
    If you don't know, but know someone who does, and would be happy to help, drop their name c;

    Thanks and byeeeee <3

      955 Width and 1000 - 2000 length is more than usable if you don't spam the random thoughts feature

      As for the images in the center:

      0. Save your work as you go, make sure you don't save after step 5 so that you don't lose your profile and can adjust it if you don't get it quite right.
      1. Make your profile how you want it, and upload it with a blank avatar
      1.5. Use this for your header. It's a transparent image.
      2. Screen shot the profile with the avatar on top of it (Use the print screen button.)
      3. Paste the screenshot into a new document and then crop the profile to the correct size.
      4. Copy and paste the cropped image on top of the profile, and lower the opputancy to about 50 - 70 % so you can see the original full profile on bottom.
      5. Crop to the blank FFR Avatar.
      6. Delete the lower Opputancy layer and save it as it's own document. If the avatar isn't 200 X 200 you made a mistake in your crop. It will not overlay properly.

      Then just fiddle with it till you've got it just right. It's not perfect, but you'll get really close, or perfect if you eye ball it right.

      The reason you need to take the screen shot and overlay it is because how big your profile is, is what determines where the part you want for your avatar will be.

      Short hand:

      955 X 1000 Profile
      200 X 200 Avatar, then it's just overlaying the crop correctly for the avatar.
      USE THE HEADER I LINKED SHIT.

      Hope that helps.

      Edit: for reference - my current profile is 955 X 3000 because it's got nothing on it.

                  Ah ok! However, I thought the maximum image size you can upload is 960 x 200 px.
