Dear my friends...
I need to have some pictures that I make with Gimp. I
need some pictures to put them on my homepage. My
homepage has a background motive (<body
background="bgprabu.jpg">).
The problem comes because I need my pictures without
background (white color) so the background motive of
my homepage seen just stop on the edge (side) of my
pictures. Now, what is happening on my homepage is the
background motives stop on the white background of my
pictures.
I tried to crop my pictures. So I want to take the
pictures but not the background of my picture (with
white color) because if I open these pictures with
gimp than I can see that these pictures have actually
square form. I need only the object of the picture but
not its white background so I should crop the area of
the picture where content the picture.
I tried to crop my pictures with autocrop :
- select the picture with one click,
- right click,
- select image,
- select transform,
- select autocrop.
But nothing happen on the picture. I can not remove
the area outside the picture object.
I tried to take crop the picture :
- View in (Zoom in),
- and select the region with hand drawn regions,
- and crop it,
- copy it onto a new canvas with transparent
background,
But after I save it and open it back (again) than I
find the picture which just I made with transparent
background still has the white background.
Please tell me how to do that. I read the
documentation and follow what it said but I still
don't succeeded.
Thank you very much in advance.
