Hey. Alot of people have been asking me how to use Paint.net or how to make a bg or how to download fonts so i thought i'd make a video explaining how to.
Paint.net is a free picture editing program that doesn't expire.
Virus Free: ☑
Legal: ☑
Heres the link to download it:

Step By Step:
1. Open up CP
2. If you have internet explorer then zoom in like i do in the video. If not then just open up your player card.
3. Make sure you can see your whole penguin. Then press the button Printscreen (PRTSC SYSRQ) heres a picture of what the button looks like:

4. Open up Paint.net and click Edit then Paste into new image.
5. Click the 'Rectangle' on the tool box. (It's the first tool - top left)
6. Pan over your penguin, just so you can see the penguin and its bg. Cutting out all the rest of the stuff.
7. Then click Image- then crop section.
8. Select the Magic wand tool and click the blue BG behind your penguin.
9. Click Edit- then cut
10. Open up any picture or BG that you want your penguin to be infront of.
11. Get the Rectange tool again and put a rectange around your penguin. Then click the keys 'CTRL' and 'C' together. It's a shortcut for copying.
12. Go to the picture of BG you wanted your penguin infront of. Click Layers- Add new layer.
13. Press the keys 'CTRL' and 'V'. Thats the shortcut for pasting. Your penguin should then appear on picture you opened.
14. VVhen it comes to saving save it as whatever you want BUT save the 'Save as type' as 'JPEG.....
15. Then the quality box will come up. You have to lower the quality of the picture to just below 256K. It doesn't change the appearance of the BG much at all. If you don't do this then when it comes to uploading the BG onto youtube it will say "Picture too big" so just lower the quality a little to fit under 256K.

I'm not sure if this all works for macs, i have a toshiba laptop with vista :)

The first song i used in this video was: The Spell - Alphabeat
The second song i used towards the 3/4 mark of the vid was: Fight for this Love - Cheryl Cole
I love both songs :) If you have a CPMV to any of those songs post it as a video response (:
