====How to remove black bacground==== | |||
For [[:Template:CharacterInfo|statblocks]] sometimes it's necessary to upload a transparent scrennshot of an in-game model. | |||
If you don't know your way around Photoshop you can just use [https://www.remove.bg/ Remove.bg] website to do it for you for free. It scales the image down but it doesn't matter for infobox purposes. | |||
* Go to [https://www.remove.bg/ Remove.bg]. | |||
* Upload the image with backround you need to remove (either by drag and dropping or simply Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V). | |||
* Wait for result. | |||
* Click on the blue Download button. | |||
* Upload the image to the wiki and don't forget to rename it to {{InfoBlob|Character_name_Model.png}} | |||
If the result erased too much or not enough, you can Edit it on the website to Erase/Restore features. | |||
