Hello dear players,
This guide is for people who are completely green in making in-game backgrounds.

I have decided to write full description about it.

Contents:

#Post 1:

- Introduction
- Preparing background image
- Template making

#Post 2:

- Flash background making

1. Introduction

Let’s start then, to make any background flash or normal, you will need tools, right?
Here is the list of these tools which I am using to make anything:

• GIMP 2.6.11 or higher
• Adobe Photoshop CS6

2. Preparing background image

OK, when you’ve got needed tools, you can now find your dreamed background,
It can be anything – you can make your own bg image if you want but I will use this one from google.

My image has 1600x200 resolution, but for in-game background we will need 770x560.
So now you have to scale image with some tool(GIMP or Photoshop). I will use GIMP for that.
In GIMP it will be image>scale image or something like that.
Now just change resolution to 770x560

Now if your background has 770x560 resolution then you can make, or use already created template.
Watch below to see how to make own template.

3. Template preparing

Template preparing is too easy like background preparing.
You will need for that template!

Yes, you will need just cutted to alpha original NA template.

And now you can modify it(change visual stuff or remove elements or make template bg).

Now you have to copy template layer and paste it to your prepared already background.

Read more about layers:

Now I will change template layout to color green 50% alpha. And here is my background:

I will release Background Creator soon written in C++.

3. Flash background making

There are two ways to makie flash bg:

#Way 1

For now the easiest way is make .gif file and convert them into swf format( you have to save proportions 770x560). You will need for that GIF to Flash Converter.

• GIF to Flash Converter ( 11.37MB )

#Way 2

The second way is make flash file by yourself. You can use programming or some flash maker. Here is one flash maker which I found in google http://www.toufee.com/ . Unfortunately this is trial version. This is not warez forum, find cracks etc. in google. I prefer use first way then.

If you want to learn programming in flash, see google:
