lol its not something you can learn overnight, takes lots of practice. but its called photo-manipulation. you can look up some tutorials in the search bar at the top of the page, type in something like "horse manip tutorial" or "manipulation tutorial". hope that helps. you can't leave something important like a cover for a last minute thing, you can always just buy a stock photo to use.

it just makes the horse work harder. Personally if I was the horse I would buck the bouncing rider off. Then they could bounce up and down on the ground. lol

peachesrox In reply to venomxbaby [2010-11-10 11:48:43 +0000 UTC]
probably.
Believe it or not, when I first started making manips, I think I used like 2 images that were not stock, either then that it was all stock- but I didn't know about adding credit. But that was a long time ago.

yeah thats what i used to do. i mean as kids we didn't realize much, and besides back then no one cared about copyrights. everyone used pics from photographers like robert vavra all the time. its funny how it was ok then, but now more people in the horse/sim/rpg world realize there are rules to follow.

Not anymore xD

same here. I came across one that I used to think was a 'master piece'. Its choppy, no shadows, lighting in all the wrong places, and smudged all over xD

ehehe i know what you mean. the first 'manip' i ever made was a scan of one of my model horses into the scanner with some text added in the old paint program, now thats classic eh?

you betcha! I used to think that once you added text it became a 'manip'
