I want to make one colour of an indexed image transparent. Can you do this in GIMP?
longer explanation: I've taken a photo of a face with a digital camera and have indexed that image, as a GIF (to save space for a final animation). I want to make the resulting indexed background colour transparent, then distort the image in various ways, eg. using Bend, and then insert the various images into layers to make a GIF animation, with a transparent background. I can do all of this except for the transparent background part. I've seen other programs that automatically make the bottom left hand pixel of a GIF transparent but can't see how to do this simply with GIMP. Feel there should be a simpler way than having to select the face and paste it into a transparent background -- it would be very difficult to select the face accurately. - Bill Kerr ------------------------------------------------- This mail sent through SE Net Webmail http://webmail.senet.com.au _______________________________________________ Gimp-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
