What is the best size to make a template?

After some trial and error creations, I have come to the conclusion that a template 256x400 will fit perfectly on a shirt. If you make the image any bigger or smaller then you will have to resize the image which will lead to a loss in quality. The resizer in PES isn't the best, so after resizing images your shirt logos will look pixelated around the edges. As I mentioned before, I don't have a PS3 to test this size template on so if anybody could import a template onto their game and report back the results it would be appreciated.

How do I know where to place items?

If you've made your template 256x400, you can use the following image to help guide you where you should put the logos and shirt designs.



As you can see, using the default layout for the chest logo it stretches the top part of the image so you may want to adjust for this when designing the shirt. Each line of colour is 40 pixels high and should help you estimate the size the shirt manufacturer and sponsor logos should be.

Where can I put the chest logo?

You can only use it on the front of the shirt (the chest, if you will), as illustrated in the image above. It is impossible to put an image on the arms, shoulders, sides or back of the shirt.

Should I put an emblem on the shirt image as well?

I would recommend it. If you set Emblem to Yes then you wouldn't have any control over its size or position on the shirt. By setting it to no it gives you greater control over the positioning and size.

GIMP Guide

Using GIMP, a freeware image editing tool. Other programs like Photoshop and Paint Shop Pro are more widely used but they cost money to buy so here's a guide using a freely obtainable program.

The first thing you'll need to do is get your images that you wish to include on your kit image, so it'll probably be the manufacturer logo and a sponsors logo. There are plenty of places on the internet where you can find the correct images, with the most obvious being Google Image Search. This is a great way to quickly find good sized pictures of logos for big companies but for some of the more obscure sponsors and manufacturers, you may have to search a little harder.

If Google doesn't return anything, I usually search on Brands of the World as they have a large collection of logos from around the world. It's also a good site to find some random sponsors if you're creating a team yourself. Checking out the individual buisness' site will always give you a logo of some sorts.

Once you have found your images, it's time to create the image in GIMP.

Load the program up and click File-->New
A new dialog box will pop up. I suggest setting width at 256 pixels and height at 400 pixels as this image should import onto the shirt in PES without the need to resize it in game. Click the advanced button and in the fill with dropdown box, select Transparency. Click Ok to create the image.


Your image should look something like this






Now it's time to put the manufacturer logo on.

If you've saved the file to your hard drive, go to File-->Open and navigate to the file's location. Open it, and GIMP will open the image in a new window. In that window, press ctrl+c to copy the image to the clipboard. Then, go back into the image you created and press ctrl+v to paste the image.

If you haven't saved the image to your hard drive and just have it up in your web browser, simply right click on the image and select copy image. Then in GIMP, paste the image in.

To put the image onto a new 'layer', click Layer-->New Layer.
By seperating the different parts of the image onto different layers, it will allow you to tweak different parts of the image without affecting the other parts.
My image now looks like this



As you can see, I have a black background I need to get rid of. To do this, you need to use one of the selection tools to select the background, and then use the delete key to remove it. I will be using the Fuzzy Select Tool for this. The Fuzzy Select Tool works by selecting one colour that the user clicks on and then selecting all of that colour in the image.



So, as I want to remove the black background I click anywhere on the black and all the black is selected by the tool. I then press delete on my keyboard and the black is removed leaving just the white swoosh behind.



Now I need to resize the image and move it into a different position.
On the toolbar, click the Scale Tool, or press Shift+T



With the scale tool selected, hold the ctrl button on your keyboard (to stop the image looking squashed when you resize) and move your mouse up or down to make the image larger or smaller. When you're satisfied with the size, click Scale on the dialog box. To move the image, select the Move tool by either using the toolbar or by pressing the M button on your keyboard. With the tool selected, use your mouse to drag the image to a different position.

My image now looks like this



To add the manufacturer logo, do the same process as before. Get the image, remove the background, resize and move. Eventually, you'll end up with something like this:



To save the image, click File-->Save As. Choose your file name and make sure you use the .png extension. So to save the file as My Shirt, you would type in MyShirt.png.

An extra dialog box should pop up, click Export and then click Save. Your final image should look something like this



This image is now ready to import into PES :)



Here's a screenshot from the PC Version of the game with the above template imported, without any resizing.


Photoshop Guide


Photoshop is probably the best image editing software on the market, and is ideal for creating shirt templates for PES.

The first thing you'll need to do is get your images that you wish to include on your kit image, so it'll probably be the manufacturer logo and a sponsors logo. There are plenty of places on the internet where you can find the correct images, with the most obvious being Google Image Search. This is a great way to quickly find good sized pictures of logos for big companies but for some of the more obscure sponsors and manufacturers, you may have to search a little harder.

It's also a good site to find some random sponsors if you're creating a team yourself. Checking out the individual buisness' site will always give you a logo of some sorts.

Launch Photoshop and go to File-->New
A new dialog box will pop up. I suggest setting width at 256 pixels and height at 400 pixels as this image should import onto the shirt in PES without the need to resize it in game. Click Ok to create the image



Now it's time to put the manufacturer logo on.

If you've saved the file to your hard drive, go to File-->Open and navigate to the file's location. Select the correct image and Photoshop will open the image in a new window. In that window, first select the image by pressing ctrl+a then press ctrl+c to copy the image to the clipboard. Then, go back into the image you created and press ctrl+v to paste the image.

If you haven't saved the image to your hard drive and just have it up in your web browser, simply right click on the image and select copy image. Then in Photoshop, paste the image in.

Photoshop should automatically place pasted images onto a new layer. By separating the different parts of the image onto different layers, it will allow you to tweak different parts of the image without affecting the other parts.

As you can see, I have a black background I need to get rid of. To do this, you need to use one of the selection tools to select the background, and then use the delete key to remove it.

So, as I want to remove the black background I click anywhere on the black and all the black is selected by the tool. I then press delete on my keyboard and the black is removed leaving just the trademark three bars and Adidas text.



Now I have to resize the adidas logo to a more realistic size and then move it to a better position. To do this, I need to use the transform tool. Press ctrl+t or Edit-->Free Transform to select the transform functions. A rectangular box with little squares on the edges should now appear.

Holding the shift key on the keyboard to keep the same size ratio, click on one of the squares in the corners and move the mouse to make the image bigger or smaller. To move the image, click on any part of the image with the left mouse button, hold the button down, and drag the logo to where you want to have it. When you have finished, either press Enter on the keyboard or click the little tick on the menubar. My image now looks like this



To add the sponsor logo, follow the same process as before. Get the image, remove the background, resize and move. Eventually, you'll end up with something like this



To save the image, click File-->Save For Web. Choose PNG-24 from the dropdown box. Click save, choose your file name then hit save to save your image. Your final image will look something like this

Thanks Pategato for this very useful thread.
I was wondering how do you create the shirt templates? Sorry if this is a stupid question, but I am an extreme newbie at this.
Let's say Aston Villa's jersey for instance. How do you create the actual template of the jersey and then how do you combine that with the sponsors we created?
thanks

Hmmmm...ive seen this guide before. Im gonna check this template on my PS3 this time. Considering i still have to stretch mine larger, even at the size i make them which is much larger than this template im wondering if PES itself is shrinking mine during the importing process. As ive got a couple of my new kits to test out try this size too and post back in a bit when i will have a definite answer for the whole PS3 situation so we can get that sorted out kinda sharpish ok :)

@ thecrow510: All the info is right there in the first post. Step by step and its all good. Just read through it mate and you'll get all your answers. First you need a photo editing program like Gimp (which is free) or Photoshop (which is not) though.

Well, ive just checked and it doesnt work out the same on the PS3. It would still need a fair amount of stretching so obviously the ideal method for a PC version does not mirror the ideal method on the PS3. I already knew the threshhold for importing pics into PES09 on the PS3 was twice as high compared to the PC version (PS3's limit being 4MB and PC being only 2MB) but i just thought there might of been some kinda loop hole where you can find a size that PES just slots the pic in spot on with the height and width of the usable area on all systems. Unfortunately thats not the case :(....
Here's the proof. This is how it looks directly after importing without altering it at all on my PS3.

Yeah, this guide should be popular, it was posted first in another big PES website by Dragonskin, and I got his permission to bring it here :)

The sizes in PS3 and PC are definitely different, a lot of trial and error involved,
I think the best size is 256x256-500, it gives the best results resizing wise.
The important thing here is, to learn how to put together the graphics, and then play with the PS3 resize feature.
