cairparavel Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 Ok can someone please tell me how to make a colour transparent when saving a gif? It is really frustrating - I have used Corel Paint in the past and you just select a colour when saving and its then transparent. Please help, step by step, because I have tried loads of different combinations and got nowhere All I have is an outline drawing I have then filled the outside part with a blue solid colour, and I want to turn the the green transparent So when saved all I see is the diagram without a border. Otherwise I'm off to find another package. Cairparavel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarkut Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 Magic Wand select the parts that you want to be transparent, then press Delete on your keyboard. With Paint.NET you actually make the parts transparent that you want to be transparent. Transparency is represented by the gray-and-white checkerboard.

Curmudgeon Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 if it's a pure blue (saturation of 255) you could download and use the Chroma Key plugin set to remove blue...it would remove all the blue and anti-alias it at the same time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
