Cool Anime Layout Tutorial
- 1). Open the software of your choice and create a new document by clicking "File," "New Document." The size for the new document should have a width and length of 600 pixels. For programs like Microsoft Paint, the default size will do.
- 2). Fill the layer with a dark gray, using the Paint Bucket tool.
- 3). Select the Shapes tool from the Tool palette and select the rounded rectangle. Create a rectangular shape in the center of your document.
- 4). Create the banner. Choose a few images of your favorite anime character or create one yourself. Remember copyright laws---if you need to find an image, it's best to look at royalty-free stock photos. Place the image on the top-right or top-left corner of your document.
- 5). Add text below your image by clicking the Text tool from the Tools palette. Any font will work, but Arial set in all caps will look nice. You now have a cool basic anime layout that can be used for MySpace or your own personal website.
