Oops! I created a bunch of vmars316 buttons/banners and saved them as .gif,.jpg.png and dumped them into SiteSpinnerPro. The transparent .png in question in SSP shows as black background as does the .jpg . But in chrome browser the .png is transparent. And of course the .pdn in pdn shows as grey/white checkerboard. Short version: I confused myself with so many images. All is well. Thanks.. vmars

Thanks in advance: I notice that if i save an apparently 'transparent image' as .gif , it is truly transparent(no background). However, if I save that same 'transparent image' as .png , that it has a Black background. Pls, what am i not doing, that needs to be done, to make a transparent .png . Thanks.. vmars

Ah yes, thar she be, great. I noticed that i dont really need to know image size, to make canvas size = image size, if i do the following: select textImage with mWand, then click on Image/'Crop to Selection'. But its nice to be able to see imageSize. Thanks.. vmars

Thanks: Ah, zero tolerance, ok. Ah, the old rectangle tool (to me this is winging it). Pdn does a good job of reporting the exact height & width of canvas. But, I wish that pdn would also show the exact height & width of a selected Object. Then Image ReSize and Canvas Resize would be a cinch. Maybe pdn already does this, and i am just not seeing it. Thanks folks.. vmars

Thanks in advance! I would like to crop to this image text: With magicWand i selected text then cntrl+shift+x to crop but maybe because of the diff in image colors(?) results are ugly: Pls, what is a better way to do this? .. vmars316

Ah, that's great! Btw: Sarkut What did you use to capture those pics(ts01.png, etc)? They are really crisp and clear. Here's what I came up with : By accident (while trying your bite-tut) I stumbled upon this: Thanks All ! .. vmars

how can i grab hold of the image i am working on
vmars316 replied to vmars316's topic in Paint.NET Discussion and Questions
1) The Help says: << Pan Using this tool you can scroll, or pan through the image. This functionality is also usable from any other tool at any time: simply hold down the spacebar and then click and drag with the mouse. >> I tried that, but image doesn't move. I dont want the image to be bigger I just want to move it to the right. 2) When i select All, and leftMouseDown and Drag "the Move Selected Pixels too" the only thing that moves is a thin black wire frame of the image. Need help! Thanks.. vmars -
How to make this: look like this (gradient wise): This is as close as i get, cant get the gradient to work for me. I click on theWand and drag it across the image. Do i have to drag the gradient across the image too? I have tried it both ways. Could someone rattle this off for me, and either post results or send an email to me, so I can see the steps to take? Thanks.. vmars ps: another thing that throws me off is once i type in some text and go do a diff function I cant get back into same TEXT stuff (what ever its called), that i just created, to change font etc... As you can probably tell i am VERY frustrated.

Greetings; I am trying to recreate this button 'free ware' First i create a bg layer (how do I make bg transparent?) then create layer2 transparent then create layer3 transparent Right here, i don't understand why all layers show as blue background, except (if i uncheck bg) bg shows as blue checkerboard Then set primary color #E9E7C0 (for text) and also set secondary color #8C8038 Then back to layer3 and create text 'free ware' Then select/run GradientTool across text layer3. layer3 gets covered with gradient. I was expecting to see the GradientText (only) with gradient. Can someone pls show me how to do this properly. Thanks.. vmars I uploaded an image file, but I dont see it yet. Here is the image i am trying to reproduce: http://home.hccnet.nl/s.j.francke/software/software.htm Top of page.

Hmmm... When I click Cntrl+N the current image goes away and I end up with a new Blank image. I would like to see them side by side, both visible at once. Is this possible? Thanks.. vmars

Thanks in advance: 2 issues: 1) I am confused by how the colorPicker(cp) works. I would expect: to move cp to color in ColorWindow that i want to pick, then click leftMouse. But when i move cp into colorWindow , cp changes to blackArrow. I have an image with no color white in it. So how do i get white into the cp.? 2) I would like to have more than one image to work on at a time(transfer stuff back and forth). I guess that i could have two copies of pdn running at same time. Thanks.. vmars
