frogsaver Posted September 8, 2010 Share Posted September 8, 2010 (edited) The image attached is the image I want to isolate. I want it to just be the words, and the 2 pictures so if I put it on a shirt there is no white backround it just fits right in. I'm making the shirts on customink.com just incase you wanted to know. I have tried the magic wand, but it doesn't copy over the facial features or any detail. I attached Alpha Mask to paint.net, but when I check invert mask the images of the milk, and cookie become faded, and there is a checkered background..... I cant have a checkered background on the image I want it to just be clear. If there is some way to do this please let me know thanks! EDIT: The first attached image is what happens when I use the magic wand or as described in another tutorial a few posts down "dump some transparency" EDIT2: whoops ignore the part about the checkered background I realize now that it disappears when you open the file in another program to view or something like that.

Ego Eram Reputo Posted September 8, 2010 Share Posted September 8, 2010 The checkerboard pattern is the method Paint.Net uses to indicate transparency. Any part of an image that shows the grey & white checkerboard pattern will be transparent when viewed, provided you save the file in a format that supports transparency. Those formats include *.gif and *.png, but not *.jpg for example. For the images you're looking at, try the Alphaspace, or Grim Color Reaper plugin to remove the background color, leaving transparency.
