Re: MLB 2K11 Covers
GREAT stuff rudy.
do u have a Brett Gardner in you?
Also, a i the only one who likes the straight up photo for a cover instead of the fancy coloring and backgrounds of the usual baseball covers?
feels more old school this way.Last edited by econoodle; 02-01-2011, 11:19 AM.Comment

Re: MLB 2K11 Covers
Rudy have you tried to do historic players? Like Ted Williams? It's cool if it's black and white, or that old-looking sepia tone.Boston Red Sox

Re: MLB 2K11 Covers
You would have to print it out and specify the right dimensions when you print them. As for creating them I use my wife's old version of Adobe Photoshop and I have very basic skills. You just have to learn the layer concept and doing what I do is very simple. I had a basic set of instructions that I think I had on OS at one point a year or two ago but I can't find them right now. Going to work on the Gardner and Bagwell PS3 covers right now.Comment

Here's a Ted Williams one. Old guys are hard because the picture quality is usually poor.

Re: MLB 2K11 Covers
Found some of my old instructions and these were for NCAA 09 covers so it might not be 100% right but the basics are there. All basic covers are done the same. Of course you need the template (I can e-mail them since they are too large to attach here so just PM me if you want one).
This is using Adobe Photoshop. Once you get one done, it is easy after that.
You have to make sure the Layers are turned on first in order to make changes (Click on Window and make sure the Layers option has a checkmark beside it). If the Layers are turned on you should see a separate box with all the Layers in it which you need open. Once you have the basic NCAA template open in Photoshop, you need to replace the layer of the blank player with the picture you want in there.
The basic template when opened in Adobe Photoshop should have roughly 6 layers. The second last one is the blank player I think. You want to switch that with the picture you have so open the picture you want to use WITH Photoshop (right click on the file and use Open with Adobe Photoshop). Now you should see both the template open and the picture you want to use next to it. Simply click on the picture (make sure its active by clicking on it first) and drag it over to the template. You should see the picture added as an extra layer if done correctly in the layer box. Click on that layer and then you can move the picture around to center it. To delete the layer of the blank player, simply click on the layer with the blank player to make it active and select LAYER... Delete.. Layer.
You can save the file as an adobe file and then you also need to use the Save As feature (change format to JPEG) and save it as a .jpg to use as a picture. You're done!
Layer Notes: The layers listed first (at the top) in the Layer box will appear "on top" of the lower layers so you can drag your picture up and down to change it but you want the logos for 2K Sports to be above it so the picture you chose is used as a background. If you want to recenter the EA logo just click on that layer and use your mouse to drag it around.
Warning: You need to have a large picture to make this work. If it's small (the template is 1500 X 2000) then you will probably have to resize your picture to make this happen. To resize the picture you want to use to make it bigger, you can do that in Photoshop by making sure you have the picture active (not the template), click on Image.. Image Size and then enter 1500 in the width area (or 2000 in the height area) and hit OK. You can then drag the image over to the template.
Cropping: You can use the magnetic lasso tool to do a quick and dirty crop of players but I hate doing this. You are on your own if you want to cut out players lol.Comment
