LBG to Creating Backgrounds

Starting with the easiest!
The most exciting thing about creating backgrounds this way, is that you can run wild with ideas. Why? Go to FurnitureLand. See that hot sports car that costs 25,000BD? Right click on it and you are the proud owner of a sports car. Everything is right clickable so all you need is your imagination!

There are two house backgrounds you can use. The garden and the room. Find them HERE
I will be working on the garden for this tutorial.

Starting with the template, i downloaded some cloud brushes and put them in the sky. I want a car in the background so right click on a car and copy image. Paste it into your background.

But wait! A Wild black background appears!
There are two solutions for this. The easier method was to save the car, open it as a new image and copy and paste. The other method is to use the magic wand tool, with a tolerance of around 5. It still may "spill" into darker areas of the car but just use your eraser to erase the black you want to get rid of.

So the car is taking up a lot of space. One of my favorite tools to use is (no idea what its called actually) the CTRL + T. You get a cute box which easily allows you to resize it from all directions and also rotate it. I resized the car to about half the original size.
The next thing i did was add some bimbos to the background. For this, i saved two of my bimbos from the Bimbo Images of my profile. I even put one in the car. Her arm got cut off for the sake of this tutorial. Flowers can be sent to Room 417, Bimbo Hospital, Bimboland.


Onward to FurnitureLand to see what else we can shoplift borrow. I'm going to use some bushes, flowers and a pavement. Remember to either save the stuff or use the magic wand to get rid of the black areas.

My final result!
You can will probably do better than me. The final result was made by duplicating areas (trees were used as bushes) flowers and the skyline. You may need to place layers below others (such as the skyline layer placed below the car layer and bimbo layers.

The whole idea of this tutorial is not just to get your creativity juices flowing, but to show how easy it can actually be!
