This will make the shape as large as possible. If you want the shape smaller, then use the resize slider instead to your liking. Then, press print screen, paste in your favorite image editor, and crop the shape out. Save, and you're done. | This will make the shape as large as possible.

== Extraction with Flash Exploit == | == Extraction with Flash Exploit == | ||
NOTE: This extraction does not always work. | |||
Open Flash Exploit by going into (All) Programs -> Flash Exploit -> Flash Exploit. As there is no need for a login, click http://i41.tinypic.com/2jfljdg.png . Go to File -> Open and select your file. Once loaded by da kitty (da kitty may take a while), click the icon next to shapes. | |||
Now, remember back from FDT what the shape number was for the image? | |||
http://i43.tinypic.com/107uce9.png | |||
In this case, 99. Scroll down to find Shape ID: 99. You may be wondering "What the {{p|Furret}} is this? The logo's messed up!" Mess around with the buttons below the preview. (This may not always work. In this example, '''the extraction didn't work'''. It works for the TCG logo, however, that is in the same file. Odd.) Now choose Export -> to SVG (Frame). Save it wherever to your liking. | |||
Now you have the image... as an SVG. Now what? I WANT IT AS A PNG!!! | |||
=== Conversion to raster (PNG, JPEG, TIFF) === | === Conversion to raster (PNG, JPEG, TIFF) === | ||
There are many ways to convert a vector to a raster. My favorite way is via http://www.fileformat.info/convert/image/svg2raster.htm . Click Browse... and navigate to your SVG. Then, choose the filetype of choice. In this case, I'll choose PNG. | |||
Now, choose the size. Only put an amount in one box unless you know the shape's aspect ratio. I'll choose 5000 pixels as the width. Give it a second and voila, your file is ready. | |||
NOTE: Sometimes the file will turn out blank. Choose a smaller pixel amount. | |||
== In conclusion == | |||
Bitmap images: Flash Decompiler Trillix | |||
Shapes: Try Flash Exploit; if fails, Flash Decompiler Trillix. | |||
