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. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

I think you want the following: open a picture Image > Alpha > Add Alpha Channel Select > By colour.. (possibly reduce fuzziness threshhold) select white area Edit > Cut File > Save As.. save the file as png (portable network graphic) The png will work with all recent web browsers and gives a transparent background. -- JDL Non enim propter gloriam, diuicias aut honores pugnamus set propter libertatem solummodo quam Nemo bonus nisi simul cum vita amittit.
It is solved. Thank you very much, my friend.... You're cool.... --- John Lamb <J.D.Lamb@btinternet.com> wrote:

The png will work with all recent web browsers and gives a transparent background.
