Why in the world would you take it with a digital camera!???? Of coure you use VMKpal. crop the pic to your charater, save it, then put it on word, print it out, and cut it manually!

hey there, i love my flat vmk characters. The way I make mine is I take a pic in vmk pal. In order to make the pic big take it in a guest room because your character appears larger in those rooms then in the public rooms. I like to use the everest room and I stand as close as I can to the edge of the screen facing forward. I use the everest room because it is a white background and easier to define my character.
Then I take the pic using vmk pal. If you don't have vmk use your print screen button at the top right of the key board.
If you use vmk pal after you take the pic save it in a folder. I then open my paint program open the pic I saved and use the crop tool to highlight just my character and i copy and paste it in a new document. I usually make it 3 characters high as that is about the right size to print on one page and each character ends up to be just over 3 1/2 inches high . When you print it out select fit to page. If you want a really big character you can put just one character on the page and print to page.
When done I pint it, cut it out, and laminate it! There you go you have a flat character!
Good Luck!
