user9191 Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 So I have this image: And I want to change the "f" color to blue and make the background transparent. How to achieve this? Quote ME!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Djisves Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 1. Open the image in Paint.NET and Zoom In to 200% or more. 2. Select the Color Picker tool and click anywhere on the blue colour. 3. [Menu] Adjustments > Brightness and Contrast and set Brightness -100 and Contrast 100. This will turn the blue background to black. 4. Select the Paint Bucket tool and click anywhere inside the transparent "f". 5. Select the Magic Wand tool and click anywhere on the black background. Hit "Delete" on your keyboard. 6. Select the Eraser tool to clean up the edges of the image. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the result is a pixelated image, I could do it so, but I want to have the alpha values so it looks more like "f" from a font, not a video game. Quote ME!!!

Jack002 Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Is font mode not an option? Click on the font tool, select Arial, 108 point, bold, click in the image and press "f". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Visual Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 (edited) Why not just make a larger square and set it to transparent, add a layer, select the color blue that you want and type an F. You can then dress it up with some drop shadow or some beveling. If you want the exact font just search which font that they use. Then, it is just a matter of resizing it to what you want.
