This topic is part of our Graphic Design section:
http://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=419631

And also part of our Computer tricks and customization section:
http://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=419443


This topic is outdated and no longer supported, but may still work. However I prefer everyone use my new Photoshop Free and Easy tutorials to make wallpapers now. Don't worry, no money or experience will be needed, plus you should get much better and faster results!

I'm trying to find Character rends but all of them have some white or black background, how do you get rid of them in another way other than to erase it carefully?

If an image is called a render online then it shouldn't have a background when you download it unless you downloaded it as a JPG, which isn't the file type it should be downloaded as. It should be downloaded as a PNG file, these support transparent background (JPG doesn't and makes the background white/black). If you download a render as a PNG and it still has the white/black background, then you aren't downloading a legit render.

Also what program are you using for the renders and do you have any of the links to the renders that didn't work- Microsoft Paint and some other programs won't work for renders, I believe.

Oh okay I see.
I'm using the JASC Animation Shop free trail. Is there a site for renders? I personally want a render for Reki from hidan No Aria, but I can't seem to find one :/

This one came up on top Googling 'reki render', there's a chibi one too.

Topic on renders: http://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=400287

I wish I knew of a solid render site, but popular ones I come across simply aren't as useful as just using Google/Google Image, DeviantArt or searching transparent_background on Danbooru. Sometimes you find some gems on render sites you won't find elsewhere. But they're are many bad renders that clog up those sites as well plus they often have annoying rules about downloading and searching. One site wants you to pay to download renders...

Oh man thank you so much!

I'll try to find a good render site, though probably not successful. Thanks for all the effort you put in this for everyone.

in Photoshop is easy to make a render if it's a special picture, but googling serie or character name + "render" + size big let you find some good renders with transparent background.

anyway, if you got some image and want a render of it, send me a pm with the image, if i can't make it, a friend of mine could do it..

I appreciate it but don't worry about it too much, as its not a huge problem but if you find some good ones be sure to post back here tho. I find really good renders on Danbooru and Google like the ones used for my World of Moecraft list design on my anime list right now.
