This will help you make perfect background for your PSP that you can enjoy ;)
Step 1: Download, and install GIMP.
Step 2: Find a large picture that you want as your new background. Dont forget to try and find a picture larger than 480x272 pixels.
Step 3: Open up your pic in GIMP.
Step 4: Scale your image. To do this hit 'Alt+I', then 'S' to open up the Scale Image box. Then make sure that both chains are locked, and that the drop down box on right is set to pixels. After that, type in 480 in the width box, or 272 in the height box making sure that both boxes are > or = to 480, and 272.
Step 5: Set image canvas size, or crop your image. To do this hit 'Alt+I', then 'V' to open up the Canvas Sizer box. Unlock the chain, and make sure the drop down boxes are set to pixels. Then, make your width 480, and your height 272. After that you're going to want to drag the picture towards the bottom of the box to choose which section you want to crop out. Hit resize, and you're done with step 5.
Step 6: Save your image.To do this hit 'Ctrl+Shift+S' to save your picture as a new image. It is important that you do a "save as", because you do not want to save it as a .jpg, because you can loose quality that way. After you hit 'Ctrl+Shift+S', you should see another box that you will use to save your pic. Make sure you find a folder that you can remembMake ure to ave it somewhere where yo cam find i easily, and then type the name of the file you want ending in '.png'. So, the file name should look something like "picture.png". Hit enter twice, and you have your perfectly formatted PSP background.
