Making funny signs can be a fun way to express your creativity. There are many pictures of funny signs that circulate on the Internet everyday. Sending someone an e-mail containing a funny sign can be a great way to brighten someone's day.
Instructions
1. Plan your design. Choose an original picture that you want to alter. Decide how you want to alter the picture and what funny element you plan to add.
2. Upload a picture. Open the picture in an image editing program like Paint, Paint Shop or Photoshop. This will turn your original image into an editable format allowing you to alter the original contents of the photo.
3. Get rid of the original elements in the photo that you are planning to alter. Most image altering software has an option like an eraser where you can precisely erase the unwanted elements.
4. Open a blank image document. In this blank document you will design your funny element that you plan to add back into the original image. This step may take some practice to master. It is often difficult to get size and placement correct.
5. Copy and paste. In programs like paint shop and Photoshop you can create another layer to be added on to the picture. This allows for a nearly seamless transition from the original photo to the new altered photo. First you copy the new element, and then create another layer to be added on top of the original photo. Paste your new element into the new layer and fuse the layers together.
6. Save your work. This is usually another way that the program will automatically fuse all of the layers together. After you have saved your work and it is to your liking, you can send it in an e-mail to be shared with others.
