Help/Creating Infobox standard images

Hello all! This page is to help members of this wiki in creating infobox standard (clear background) images of NPCs.

The only prerequisite is some sort of graphic editor program (I use Adobe Photoshop, but GIMP is also a good choice). This tutorial does not cover their installation, however you should make some progress if you Google "GIMP/Photoshop download."

Beginning Your Crop
The first thing you need to do is get a screenshot of the mob you want an image of. Technically any screenshot would do, however in a normal shot, the background would be tediously hard to remove, and you'll be wasting hours of your time on images which are unlikely to be of a great standard anyway. My preferred method, which allows me to make many, many images very quickly is as follows. Build a tower, preferably at least 40 blocks high, on level terrain (superflat could be useful here). Then, top the tower with a block that has a pretty plain texture (I use block of Quendite).
