 |
|
ok, the time has come to put all the cartoons in thinpaks. can someone give me a step by step (for photoshop) on how to take a cover and size it (i am guessing i only have to resize the spine) and the text so that the text doesnt look stretched out please?
the spine text obviously is stretched out when i take a regular cover and cut and paste and resize the spine to a thinpak case. appreciate any guidance =) thx.

hold shift button while resizing, you keep the aspect ratio.......you may have to play around a little with it after, as the virtical size will shrink,, maybe use a color backdrop behind it same color as the cover your doing......
