Custom Backgrounds

Post by Majicnanas »

STARSTRUCK started an Alchemy 3.0, but I don't know how to make the sketch of his ship a background. Any help?

In Shipmaker, click the "Tools" button along the top bar. "Change Background" is the second option down the list. You can then move the background around with the buttons T, F, G, and H, once you've changed it, if you've got the core of the ship selected.

You can also resize it in Shipmaker with Shift+T and Shift+G, but that's really wonky and hard to get right, so you're better off resizing the actual picture with an image editing tool.
