Step-By-Step
How do we make the chick look fuzzy? Simple. Save the chick as a bitmap image and open it in an image editing program. I used Photoshop 4 to apply a Diffuse Filter, giving the outline a punk look. Then I applied a Radial Blur, Zoom, setting of about 20 to produce the fuzzy appearance. Cool, huh?
To remove the white background from the fuzzy chick bitmap, create a "Clipping Path" or outline that’s just at the edge of the fuzz. Select the path and the bitmap and Arrange-Combine Shapes, Intersect Shapes. Like a cookie-cutter, this removes the white background. In Draw 7 you can simply use the Bitmap Color Mask to select the white and make it transparent.
