  Google some photoshop cloud making tutorials, that'd be the easiest way, you want to make them on a transparent background

  Ah. Well those clouds will need to saved in a separate layer on a transparent canvas (alpha channel). If you don't have the raw file where the layers are preserved, you will not be able to do this without creating new ones, or purchasing cloud assets designed just for this use.

  for the clouds go onto gamesalad creator and open the cannon physics template i think this is the one that has movable clouds in the background and you can use the art and rules in this actor. This should give you the clouds your looking for!
  For the background i would simply use a gradient blue image and maybe fiddle around with it.

  Hi,
  
  I whipped something up pretty quick. It contains a sky image (background) and two different cloud images on a transparent background for you to import into your game and get it working right away. See the preview below.

  Without permission from gamesalad you really can't use template images in your game. They are there to help you learn,not to use.

  Fair enough, but using the rules shouldn't be a problem!
