Biaxident Posted July 8, 2002 Share Posted July 8, 2002 Welp, you may concider me as a stupid ass, but here goes... I'd like to know how the white background can be removed, for example in this picture: I want the background to be "invisable". I suppose you all know what I mean. Thanks for your time and help. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 twist Posted July 8, 2002 Share Posted July 8, 2002 transparent (invisible) for a web img? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Hawkeye Posted July 8, 2002 Share Posted July 8, 2002 Hmm. Well, I can tell you that the first thing you would need to do to make the white background invisible is to save it as a GIF file, as that is currently the only file type that supports transparency on the web (PNG does also, but I won't get into that). The JPG format that you saved it in now does not support any kind of transparency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 twist Posted July 8, 2002 Share Posted July 8, 2002 png should support transparancy, but doesn't in msie :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Microsoft is actually pushing the PNG format themselves, and they still didn't make their browser 100% PNG compliant. Other than animation, I prefer the PNG format over the GIF format anyday. I love PNG's ability to suport many more colors than GIF and also 32-bit colors with alpha blending. Anyway, T-Man, were you trying for something like this?: You can save it and keep for yourself if you want. I was just bored so I tried to do it. I guess it turned out pretty good. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
