Quick update .. I'm trying to use the bucket fill for the area I need to replace the white in. The bucket fill works perfect in the sense that it fills the correct area, but it fills it in red! Both my foreground and background colors are set to white. I don't understand where the red is coming from. I've tried this a bunch of times - no matter what my foreground and background colors are set to, when I click the bucket fill in the area, it gets filled in red.

Hi Harish, That worked awesome! The transparency looks much better than what one of my coworkers pumped out in Macromedia Fireworks .. I have one problem though, alluded to in the tutorial you mentioned. There's a graphic in the logo I'm working on that was some white in it, which got removed by the Color To Alpha procedure. The tutorial mentions painting underneath the image to replace the white that should be part of the graphic, but doesn't go into how to do this? Thanks again for the advice, Mark -----Original Message----- From: Harish Narayanan [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, May 08, 2004 4:07 PM To: dreadnought Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [Gimp-user] Making an image with a white background transparent? dreadnought wrote: >Is there a resource geared for newbies on how to do this? > > Sure, here you go: http://gimp.org/tutorials/Changing_Background_Color_1/ (And you obviously wouldn't need to do step 5 on that tutorial.)
