How To Make A Ferengi
Page 2 - Positioning, Sizing, and Erasing
You probably won't believe me. But a Ferengi, with the proper images, will be easier to do than the Orion. Normally, you have two images that are of different sizes. Paint Shop Pro will show the percentage of size from the original size of your image. As you can see quark4a.jpg is shown at 100% and Tom is shown at 80%. Even with Tom at 80% he still appears larger than Quark. The solution is to resize one of the teo images. I decided to resize Tom. It doesn't matter who you resize - Tom had to be resized to 50% the original. After you resize Tom, do a Save As (File>Save As) and use any name you want. The idea is to NEVER work with the original. The moment you do and you SAVE -- ON MY GOD! I didn't mean to save it -- you'll understand.
02a. - Two ways to resize. Click on the image. Then click Image>resize. Make sure the Lock Aspect Ration is checked and the ration is 1.0462 to 1. Type 50 in the Width field and the Height field automatically changes to 50. The other way is to click on the image and hold the Shift key while tapping once on the S key. The resize dialog will appear.
02b. - Once Tom has been correctly resized we can begin.

02c. - There are two places that are very important: The first one is located on the right side. It looks like this. Look closely at the section labeled LAYER. Right now there is one item there - Background. Soon, we'll have two. Quark as the backgound and part of Tom's face as a Raster image.

02d. - And this toolbox on the left side. Remember these items. The cross with the arrows at the end of each tip, the rectangle underneath the cross, the hand with the finger touching the "ground", and the pencil end with the eraser. Click on the down arrow next to the rectangle. Select the Lasso looking item. This will probably be your most often item used.
02e. - Let's go ahead and capture a part of Tom's face. Place the mouse cursor somewhere between his eye and ear. Hold the left mouse button down and "draw" out a heart aroud his face. Actually you can do any shape - the important thing is the we need to incled both eyes, the nose, most of the chin, and both cheeks. Once that is done, either hold the CTRL button down and tap once on the C key, or click on Edit>Copy. Remember, if you every make a mistake, you can always undo. Go through the tutorial on making an Orion for details on using Undo. At this point if you make a mistake when "drawing" around Tom's face just click the Lasso outside the outline. Do a new outline and then do a Copy.
