Hello again....so I've come a long way in using this program since I posted my first question months ago but now I find myself running into a new problem that I am hoping really isn't that much of a problem after all. I run a T Shirt company and use Paint to make my designs. It seems to work just as well as PS without the added cost. Anyway, here is the problem I have run into...When I first started using the program I was making designs with anti-aliasing enabled. My current printer was able to use these designs with no problem. I am looking into changing printers to someone more local with better pricing but they have cautioned me that giving them an image with anti-aliasing in it will be a problem and will cause a white line to be wherever anti-aliasing had been used...or really, any sort of shading that has an opacity under 255. I have nearly 40 files that have been done with anti-aliasing enabled and some sort of blur/shading. I would hate to have to go back and re-do all 40 files. So my question is: Is there a simple way to fix these files that I am not thinking of? Can I turn the anti-aliasing off somehow and re-save the files? Maybe changing bit-depth when saving? ANYTHING? lol Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the help everyone. I'm getting there! Actually, It's coming along pretty well.

I have been messing around with this program for a day now and I'm understanding some of it but I am wondering if there is an easier way. Here is what I'm doing (or trying to do): I have line drawings in jpeg format that I am using for T-Shirts. Actually, the jpegs are the original formats as I have them converted to eps files now. Anyway...I am trying to take these jpegs and submit them to a print fulfillment company as png files. Here is the problem, I need to have only the lines and remove the background. Obviously, when I open the file, the whole thing comes in as a background. So I select the magic wand, mess around with some settings, go through picking every line, create new layer, and now I have all these outlines on the new layer. Next step I use paint bucket to fill in the outlines but it doesn't always fill them in solid. So, I try brush but I can't get that to actually do anything on either layer. So what I'm asking... 1) Is there a more simple and accurate way to remove the background? 2) Why can't I get the paint brush to work? Thanks
