Instructions

- - ✰ Hello guys!!! Here is the long awaited thumbnail tutorial! Enjoy lmao - - ✰ I’m just going to get right into it - - ✰ Click for the next slide! - - ✰ First up I go into my drawing program (Medibang paint in my case) When you click on “new drawing” or whatever else your drawing program say when you make a new canvas, some options should pop up. Press/Click the Browse to import button. - - ✰ Now, look through your camera roll, or your files and find a drawing that you want to set as your thumbnail. - - ✰ When you click done you should have something like this (Go to slide 2) - - ✰ Then what I do, is create a new layer on top of the layer I imported in, like so (Go to slide 3) - - ✰ Then I go down to the rulers button on the bottom of my screen. It is in different places for different programs (Go to slide 4) - - ✰ I grab the “crisscross” also know as the straight line ruler. This is good for making sure all my lines are perfect. (Go to slide 5) - - ✰ Then I make a little speech bubble like this! Then I fill it in all white with your bucket tool (Go to slide 6) - - ✰ Then what you are going to want to do, is get a light grey colour brush to outline your speech bubble (Go to slide 7) - - ✰ Now, grab a colour from your art with your colour grabber or your pipette. I chose a blueish colour. Then write the word you want in the speech bubble. I normally say ART. (Go to slide 8) - - ✰ Grab a second colour and colour over half of the word. See the slide for references (Go to slide 9) - - ✰ Then save your new thumbie to your photos or your files so you’ll be able to upload it to scratch. I save it as a PNG. You can also take screenshots. (Go to slide 10) - - ✰ Then you go into scratch and upload your new thumbnail as a sprite. - - ✰ Go to the coding part and grab a “when green flag clicked” block (Go to slide 11) - - ✰ Go into the looks section and grab a “change colour effect to (number here)” block. (Go to slide 12) - - ✰ When you click on the option part of the block these should come up. Change colour to ghost. (Go to slide 13) - - ✰ Set the number to 100 and BAM! When you press the green flag your sprite should disappear! - - ✰ Put this sprite on the front layer and press the stop button on the project. Your thumbnail should reappear. - - ✰ Set your thumbnail to the right size so it fits to the screen. You might have to mess around for a bit until you get it correct! - - ✰ Then, making sure your thumbnail is visible and in the position you want, press save project! - - ✰ That’s it! You are finished! - - ✰ If this project was helpful or you enjoyed it please leave a like or a follow! It would really help! :D - - ✰ Next projects! • Art process • OTAP for @/CranberryisYeet
