Is there any way to make graphics like this in PSP? I see it everywhere and actually really need to know how to do it to finish a volley for a battle I'm in. How do you makes the pictures circular and what's with the border? I have really wanted to know forever.

Well I guess there could be two ways to do it. First idea is to pick the selection tool and change the 'Selection' option to whichever shape you want.. Select the image or whatever and paste it on your blend.
Another option is to select the 'Preset Shape' tool-thing and play around with that (make a shape, then selection>new from vector object)

Lol, that's okay. It took me 9 months (literally) to figure out the thing does exist... :lol:

I know Antigone just covered everything, but I feel like wasting my time writing this...

What I to is select the selection tool (not freehand), and change the shape to circle, rounded rectangle or etc.
Making sure feather is off select the part of the image you like.
Copy and paste!
For the second one fill with black (or whatever color you want) then cut out with whatever shape you want! :bye2:

Elven Archer, what yo uhave to do is select the part of the image you would like to be rounded and then go Selection >> Rounded Rectangle. After setting all the setting click ok. Then go Select >> Invert and then press ctrl + x or just click cut. Then ta-da! You have your rounded rectangle!

It's more or less the same in all programs, it's just the names that are different. :P
