Question

I basically want to get a heart cutout.

Answer 1

if your having trouble, or if you dont have photoshop, you can send a link to the pick (im contactable by E-mail on here) with a accuarate discription of what you want, and i'll do it for you.

alternatively, you could do the same, but send the pic direct (if your happy to do that) to:- [e-mail]

hope to hear from you soon

Answer 2

You would want to use something like Photoshop, GIMP, Paint.Net, or some other program that allows you to edit photos. For making a heart, you could probably even use MS Paint.

You want to select an area using a selection tool, that is the shape of a heart. You then want to invert the selection (most programs it is something like Select -> Invert).

Now that you have everything but the heart selected, you can do what you want with the rest of the image. If you want to fill it all in with white so that it appears like a heart-shaped image on a white background.

If you are using a program that supports transparency (Photoshop, GIMP, etc.) you could delete that area and save it in a format that supports transparency (.png, .gif).
