RE: Making Transparent from Non-Transparent
Under linux at least, there's a plugin named colortoalpha (i dont't know where in the menu exactly, i believe under Image/Colors, search in the PDB) that can be good for this. -Message d'origine- De: Jonathan Gift [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Date: vendredi 12 janvier 2001 13:34 : Gimp Objet: Making Transparent from Non-Transparent Hi, Second big question is I have a lot of old logos Istored on a black background. Is there a way of turning the black transparent so that I can drop the logos on to a new background? I've looked in my small book but it doesn't cut. Another PS would be what are the best books? The Gimp Manual and Grokking The Gimp? Thanks, Jonathan "Hey, I think I finally got the hang of i-"

Don't have it, at least on 1.04 which came with potato and I'm trying to get my hand on something more recent... Have you an url for it? BTW, all the plugins I've seen come in source? You have to compile them all? Any special libraries involved? Thanks, Jonathan

But I can't grab the compiled deb binaries on the Debian site because they're compiled against sid and that means upgrading a lot of libraries on my potato system and breaking stuff. Any suggestions welcome. I'd love to have it... Compile! Its not hard. Just download the source, unzip it, ./configure, make, su to root, and make install. Or, you can add an apt sources line to /etc/apt/sources.list eg: deb-src ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian sid main contrib non-free and: apt-get -b source gimp1.2 This will compile the sid GIMP 1.2 package for you. You may have to chase down a few libs (and get the -dev packages for them) - Tal -- /--\ /--\ | Tal Danzig [EMAIL PROTECTED] |--| Linux by Libranet| | |--| The TOP Desktop | | |--| http://www.libranet.com | \--/ \--/
