[Gimp-user] Need help with translucent image
I've tried your suggestion with a multitude of threshold settings but unfortunately it isn't working as desired. A setting over 19 will select the entire image, but even when using a low setting and getting rid of the darker area it reappears when I use bucket fill. I have a friend (she uses Photoshop, but it's worth a try) helping me with it and if she figures out why it keeps reappearing I'll post back. -- PieceKeepr (via www.gimpusers.com/forums) ___ gimp-user-list mailing list gimp-user-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list
[Gimp-user] Need help with translucent image
Also, I should have mentioned that bucket filling with black results in two very different shades. Using the color picker tool and then bucket filling gives me the dark shading again even though I pick from an area that doesn't appear shaded. -- PieceKeepr (via www.gimpusers.com/forums) ___ gimp-user-list mailing list gimp-user-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list
[Gimp-user] Need help with translucent image
I'm trying to expand a translucent image and keep the coloration even throughout. The original image is flat on top and fades to a darker color near the edge. I've tried everything I know how to do (admittedly not much) with no success. I attached a portion of the image to make it easier to understand what I'm dealing with. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If so, and the filter is itself a separate layer, then simply select by color the filter area and set the threshold at about 240 (be sure not to enable select transparent areas). This should select the entire filtered area, and leave the transparent section unselected. Cut (ctrl-X) the selected area, leaving just the selection itself. Then, bucket fill the selected area with black with the opacity that you desire (looks to me about 45). ___ gimp-user-list mailing list gimp-user-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list
