I though png was a lossless format. Whenever I re-save a png file, lets say after I resized it to be smaller, I end up with a bigger file. And If I size down the original file and the resized to a smaller image, the resized will look distorted. I don't know if this would happen in PS and what should I do instead, save it as a jpeg?

I load a background, but when I apply it it doesn't get implemented into the Paint.net layer.

I have been on a vacation and want to make a photo album. Next to the photos I want to write text of what I was doing on the photo. This photo album I want to send to someone, it could be accessed as http://www...... but I prefer it to be something that can be saved by that person on the computer or on a CD or even be able to print it out. Adding sound would also be a good feature. Any good links for this?

Yes, that to will be needed.

, no but I actually did it with the layer Rotate / Zoom.

I wanted to print a photo at a shop. I didn't need the whole photo just the face. So instead of cropping and rezising the image editor used zooming in/out. How to explain, is he had the rectangular form as the size the image is going to be printed, he then placed the form over the image, and inside the form he could zoom in/out to get the face fit in to the form. Can I do this in Paint?

Sure did, sure did.

I have an image now in the grey and white chequer pattern that is in transparency. The image is in two parts, image and text under it. Now if I copy and past into another image the grey and white chequer will follow with. My solution for that is that I wand the image to select it and the copy and past. But with this particular image I can not wand both the image and the text that is in the image just under it but still in the image. What can I do to get everything selected so I can copy and past to another image?

This is what I mean. All files are *.png. First I opened the the icon. As you can see in XP Paint with borders and black background. Which is totally wrong only there. But lets say OK I can have it like that because I'm doing something else with my image. Then lets say I want the head of the GTA guy on the bottom of the icon. So I click and "copy from" and I get the GTA guy next to my icon. I move the head so it lands on the bottom right where I want it. But, see because of the borders the GTA image eats up the bottom right of the icon, it becomes black.

Thanks for helping me. Yes I mean the black edges. I get them on XP's internal viewer and XP Paint, there also the background is black. On webbrowser and Faststone imageviewer there is no edges. In Paint.net the background of the icon it shows up the gray and white squares. For me it's no problem I can use Magic Wand to select the icon and paste it on another image. But if another user wants to do the same, maybe he is no familiar with Magic Wand or he does it in XP Paint then when he copies and paste the icon to another image in Paint.net there will show up the gray and white squares on the image he pasted and in XP Paint he will get not just the icon but also the surrounding in the black edges and the black edges itself.

I mean. Right click on the image above. Save it as a *.png. Open it in any image viewer and you will see black boundary. This goes for any image. Another example. An icon, there is no boundary. I save the icon as *.png and it creates a boundary. I'm confused.

This is the final result. Only an icon and no squares. So far so good. I can use it here and I can use it on other backgrounds with no black boundary. But I saved the image, as a *.png file, then I viewed it and there was black boundary created. :?

As you can see on this LCD screen. The background outside the LCD is white but there is still a black square boundary there. I don't want any boundary I just want the LCD screen as a (clipart).

Yes the black boundray. How do I isolate, delete......

Thanks, the guide helped me on the way. It still looks bad but also I just want the cats head and not the black square. How do I lose that?

This image is just an example. There are many images I want to wand. So how do I do? I want the cats head and those red stuff he have on his head. Is wand the only option for this? I have tried wand but far away from a good result. I appreciate also if anyone could make it for me. Also and explenation so I can do it myself.
