Title: High res PSD or PNG files?
Post by: mrtank on July 08, 2013, 06:38:05 pm

Hi all,

I'm trying to customise my iCade, and started slowly working on something but i'm finding it hard to find high res video game PSD or PNG files of characters etc...any pointers would be appreciated.

Thanks

Using advanced search under images set it to larger than 8MP or 12MP that way it will only show larger images in the search results.

I use this all the time too... its also great for inspiration...

You will be lucky to find any .psd files out there that are full of layers to switch on and off to make your stuff, and the only way to get transparencies is to edit them in PS...

PNG files are all you are going to find.  Look for characters with white backgrounds then you can get rid of the white and make it transparent so you can place anywhere in your PSD.
