:wtf: how is that going to help him? As for some tips, some types of backgrounds are made by brushes. Most people fill in black on their first layer, brush in white(on a new layer), and then color it.(Many ways to color, easiest is to make a new layer and fill in the color you want, then set it on overlay or softlight). Lighting is usually just taking a soft brush and brushing white on like the players head for example.(Like with a 100-200pixel brush)And then if it doesn't still out too much, you can just leave it, but if it does, set it on overlay,softlight,color dodge,or linear dodge and you can lower the opacities.
