Aren't these posts qualified as a 'If you don't care, don't post' thing?

Shut up, Plornt, you should help him with his problem, if you don't got Photoshop, then don't post, or at least be some kind of help

Download IZarc first from here
http://www.izarc.org/download.html

Then install IZarc (You'll need this later)

I don't have Photoshop, but here's what i would do, start a new image that is 256x256 (In pixels), use the Magic Wand to select the image, and hit delete to delete all of the whiteness that is a background, or just use the Eraser to erase all the white, then do your face from there, when you're done, save it as a .png on the Desktop (That's where i save mine, temporarily), then make a folder on the desktop called thumbs, then resize your face to 64x64 (In pixels) and save that with the same name as the 256x256 one, but save this smaller version into the thumbs folder you made, then on the desktop, select your 256x256 face and the thumbs folder (Which should have your 64x64 version of the face in), right click one of the two selected files and go to the IZarc's drop-down list (You'll see it on the list that appears after right clicking one of the selected files), and choose 'Add to desktop.zip', then after the .zip file is made, rename it to Face_FACENAME, then put it in Blockland's Add-On folder

Do not forget or i will slap you in the back of the head >:c

Umm i have a mac not pc
And i was talking bout like it still be blue or something but less visible

I have a mac, i make all my decals and such in Illustrator and Photoshop and i think know what you're trying to do,
do you mean making the blue transparent?

if so:
in photoshop:
start a new document with these settings
---------
Width : 512 Pixels
height : 512 pixels
Resolution : ***  (same as your current face file)
Color mode: RGB Color 8 Bit
Background contents : Transparent

---------
go to your other face file and drag it onto the new document, (select everything but the background layer)

Set the blue to transparent. and make it so you can see the grey checkers in the blue. (that shows how transparent your blue object will be on the block the decal / face will be.)

then after you are ready to make your final decal, click [command]+[alt]+[shift]+[ s ] (or go file > save for web and devices)

in the next window on the right side you will see a save button  below the save, cancel, and done buttons is a dropdown window. selct PNG-24 and below that make sure the box labeled Transparency is checked. click save and save it where ever.

in finder find your face and open it in preview the blue should be transparent and reflecting the grey of the preview window.  


Hope that helps
