09.23.48 # <DrJekyl> :)
09.23.53 # <DrJekyl> not mornin here ;)
09.24.04 # <DrJekyl> TA: nope 7.0 only :(
09.24.08 # <Rocambole> hello all
09.24.10 # <DrJekyl> Rocambole
09.24.34 # <Rocambole> what's up today?
09.24.37 # <TA> DrJekyl: Do you know how to crop an image? I have made a logo and I need the background transparent or the image cropped.
09.24.57 # <TA> can't find either in the docs.
09.26.03 # <TA> Building buttons, etc for ICOA-Net ...
09.27.30 # <DrJekyl> re
09.27.35 # <TA> was that fun? :)
09.28.00 # <DrJekyl> it sucked a little coz I coundn't getr back on :/
09.28.11 # <TA> :)
09.28.38 # <TA> DrJekyl: Do you know how to crop an image? I have made a logo and I need the background transparent or the image cropped.
09.29.04 # <TA> I'm building buttons and such for the ICOA_Net pages.
09.29.45 # <DrJekyl> tranparent is easy, make the first colour in the palette the "invisable" colour and save as a gif
09.30.02 # <TA> How do I do that though?
09.30.21 # <DrJekyl> TA: Hmm... wanna sent it over ? :)
09.30.27 # <TA> I can't find it in the docs.
09.30.41 # <TA> I actually need to learn how ... :(
09.31.24 # <DrJekyl> ok, the first colour in the palette is the one to make "invisable". make sense so far ?
09.31.31 # <Rocambole> hmmm....maybe that could be a topic for a conference ;)
09.31.59 # <TA> yues, but I can't find the tool or pull down to do that.
09.32.21 # <DrJekyl> so make color 0 = bright green or something that you will not mistake for a colour in the image
09.32.40 # <TA> dang it.
09.33.38 # <TA> Yes, I think I will see if Cloanto will have someone come online here for a conference. They have some good programs, worthy of our time.
09.33.45 # <DrJekyl> grr.. :
09.34.13 # <DrJekyl> TA: how much of that did you get ?
09.34.15 # <Rocambole> TA: :)) would be great
09.34.26 # <TA> DrJekyl: After I have color 0 something I can distinguish, how do I make color 0 invisible?
09.35.02 # <DrJekyl> TA: pick the image up as a brush, with color 0 set for the BG color.
09.35.21 # <Merko> Crop images in PPaint? I'll see..
09.35.26 # <TA> It says something about savinhg as a brush, but the save brush is ghosted at that point?
09.35.49 # <DrJekyl> <F6> save brush IIRC
09.36.07 # <Merko> TA: Well, is it a big picture?
09.36.40 # <DrJekyl> but you need to select save as gif screen mode unselected and the other (I cant remember it atm) selected
09.36.49 # <TA> here's what I have done, clicked the "A", pulled up a chisel font (Kara Font), have the image and BG on screen, now I want to save as a brush, except "save brush" is ghosted.
09.37.28 # <TA> Merko: It is full screen if you count the BG which I do not want.
09.37.29 # <DrJekyl> TA: can you save the whole image ?
09.37.44 # <DrJekyl> TA: what color is the BG ?
09.37.53 # <TA> DrJekyl: Yes, that is how it saves ONLY. BG is deep blue.
09.38.05 # <TA> Font is a chrome font.
09.38.29 # <DrJekyl> ok select that colour in the pallete with the right IIRC mouse button
09.38.38 # <TA> ok
09.38.48 # <DrJekyl> blue should now show as the selected BG
09.38.54 # <TA> ok
09.39.04 # <DrJekyl> click on the pickup brush icon
09.39.10 # <Merko> TA: Well, cut it out and either save it as a brush or paste it in the top corner and change size of the picture without rescaling.
09.39.15 # <TA> which one is that?
09.39.27 # <DrJekyl> hang on I'll have to check :)
09.39.36 # <Merko> It's a box.
09.39.49 # <TA> Merko: I can't find the tool to cut the image. That is the second problem I have.
09.40.04 # <TA> Merko: Click with right or left mouse?
09.40.10 # <DrJekyl> TA: the one directly above the magnifying glass
09.40.18 # <Merko> TA: Well, above the magnifying glass, besides the crown.
09.40.21 # <DrJekyl> left
09.40.47 # <DrJekyl> right will pick it up (dodgy if you mess the initial one up)
09.40.57 # <DrJekyl> TA: got it ?
09.40.59 # <Merko> TA: LMB to cut out a new brush. RMB to use an old brush.
09.41.15 # <TA> DrJekyl: OK, I tried clicking the box to crop and then what ? Put the curser on the screen cenetered on the image and enlarge the box to the size I want?
09.41.27 # <DrJekyl> Merko: 7.1 differs slightly from 7.0 then
09.42.04 # <DrJekyl> TA: no, drag it over the entire image you want
09.42.09 # <DrJekyl> like making a box
09.42.40 # <TA> ok, thanks guys. I wish there was a place in the docs that says what those little symbols mean
