smclaurin Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 Hello all, I am working on a website and have a logo that I would like to be able to use against any color background. Whenever I try uploading it it always shows a white background. I am new to paint.net and this kind of software... So perhaps I am overlooking the obvious. Can anyone help, or guide me ? Attached is the logo Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarkut Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 (edited) Save your transparent image as PNG instead of JPEG. JPEG doesn't preserve transparency. Edited August 4, 2010 by Sarkut Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarkut Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 Does that PNG look right on your website? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smclaurin Posted August 4, 2010 Author Share Posted August 4, 2010 Does that PNG look right on your website? Not really. It isn't "sharp". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smclaurin Posted August 4, 2010 Author Share Posted August 4, 2010 Watch this and you will be able! I used just your image, no edit! BTW. Use AA (the link is on the site)! Very nice... Do I save those in the paint.net folder? Or unzip them first? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarkut Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 If you made the PNG by editing the JPEG I wouldn't expect it to look good. I was hoping that you still had the logo as a transparent layer in a PDN file. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarkut Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 They didn't give you much to work with. Is there a possibility of the company providing you with a high-resolution transparent version? ======================================================= You could try resizing the current PNG version using Nearest Neighbor resizing to, say, 1904x1088 in pixel dimensions. You'd want to essentially make a new one from scratch using the existing one as a guide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
