It took me a while to hand make this in GIMP, but here's the idea: http://www.eightvirtues.com/misc/alpha_stuff.xcf There are eight tiles that use only alpha (ten if you include fully opaque and fully transparent), which are applied to a larger texture to make parts of it transparent to expose the underlying layers. In the GIMP file the eight tiles' alpha channels have been applied to the grass layer, effectively removing the undesired parts of it to expose the sand layer. Basically, copying only the alpha channel of an image to the alpha channel of another image opens up all kinds of graphical possibilities. The alpha channel is one of the few things that can make 2D graphics look great, whether used normally or creatively. ----- Kevin Fishburne, Eight Virtues www: http://sales.eightvirtues.com http://sales.eightvirtues.com e-mail: mailto:[email protected] [email protected] phone: (770) 853-6271 -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/gb.image%3A-image-alpha-channel-accessibility-tp29413575p29414425.html Sent from the gambas-user mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Make an app they can't live without Enter the BlackBerry Developer Challenge http://p.sf.net/sfu/RIM-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Gambas-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/gambas-user
