BlueKraut Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 Hi. I am new to paint.net. I am trying to take a picture and make it more transparent. The object is to use it as the background for a Powerpoint presentation. Thus I want the background to just give a hint of the picture and not disturb the content of the sldes. I have tried using background properties and decreasing the opacity but that does not seem to do anything. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Best Regards BlueKraut Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadJik Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 You should try to search on some Power Point Forum... I only have a french version so I don't know the correct terms in english. Open the View Menu (File / Edit / View) Select the slide master. Add a rectangle and right-click on it to click the paint bucket. Set the transparency to 50% and click on the color list box (don't choose background) click on textures then image. Choose the picture. It works for me. You could adapt the transparency. Then disactivate the slide master. Quote My DeviantArt | My Pictorium | My Plugins | Donate via Paypal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueKraut Posted January 29, 2007 Author Share Posted January 29, 2007 Iwas looking at itfrom the original picture angle and not the PP angle BlueKraut Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
larjohn Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 Maybe you could decrease the transparency within Paint.NET, then save your image as a PNG image, so that it keeps that transparency information. Now import the image into the PP presentation and you should be OK! Quote You 'll never walk alone http://www.lfc.tv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
