Ever thought that MS Paint is almost powerful as Photoshop? Yes, you are right! MS Paint can do almost anything like Photoshop. Can you believe it? Well, in this tutorial, I will teach you how to do a gradient overlay.
My desired width and height is 1024 x 768.
#1: Open your MS paint. Start >> Accessories >> Paint
#2: Hit Ctrl + E. The Attributes Options will pop up. Set your width to 100 and height to 500. Make sure pixels and colors are checked.
#3: Draw a line across using your first chosen colour. Then use the bucket tool to colour the top-right part of your rectangle with your 1st colour. Then the bottom-left part with your second colour.
#4: Hit Ctrl + W on your keyboard. The Skecth and Skew Options will pop up. Set the Horizontal Sketch to 1 while the rest remain the same.
#5: You will see this small tiny thin gradient already. Hit Ctrl + W in your keyboard. Set the Horizontal Sketch to 500.
#6: You will see bigger gradient. Do that another 4 times. If you think 1-3 times is enough for your width, go ahead.
#8: For the width, you will already see your desired width result. But for the height, you will see white empty space below.
#9: Use the "Pick Colour" tool and click on your bottom second colour.
#10: Use the Bucket tool and click on the white empty space. You're done!Labels: t2
Hmm, you might think it is simple for background with only 1 colour and no picture. But what if there are multi-colour and picture? Ever wondered how to? Well, wonder no more cos in this tutorial, you will learn how!
Example:
I am doing a button request. I want the text to be in the middle. But then, I aligned it wrongly!
So here's how:
#1: Do not click anything once you've finished typing, NOTHING AT ALL.
#2: Extend your image and textbox just like in the picture below.
#3: Push the right border of your text box to the center until you're satisfied with it.
#4: Hit Ctrl + E on your keyboards and they will show you your current height and width. Then change the width (and height if you extend them) to your actual width/height.
And you're done! :DLabels: t1
