Dunno if i got that right,if not,sowwy, here it is,


Step .1
* Create a new file


Step .2
* Choose "Transparent" Background


Step .3
* Create a new Layer


Step .4
* Click on your new Layer
* Next go to your "Set Foreground Color" Box -> and choose the White color.
* Select "Paint Bucket Tool" and fill your new Layer with White.


Step .5
* Click on your new Layer
* Go "Opacity" & "Fill" and adjust those little scroll bars untill you get the transparency you need.



That's all, i hope this is what you are looking for,if not sowwy.

Thank You
Enjoy.

^if that's correct [i don't know, it's different from what i do]
then i think it should be split from this thread, and moved to tutorials [if there isn't one in there already] happy.gif.
Claudel
If you dont know,why do you even reply?


7 Layers / 30% Opacity all.
Jane Doe.

Claudel

LoL! If ive put "Create new File" do i really have to say,okey now have done all,you can save`it, just go to the button "Save As" LOL! HAHAHA! this was funny really.next time think twice,lol

PS:If he has the other piece where he needs the "Transparent Layer", she has to drag and drop from 1 workspace to another lol,no need to save anything even LOL!DOH!.pft
(Only if he wants to save that Transparent layer,as a Layer Style/Pattern/Brush or whateva)

"saving transparency" is nonsense

.Gifs are less space then pngs. Gifs and pngs go transparent.
Unless he uses psp8. and that whole first paragraph you typed
i have absolutely no clue what your talking about.
Claudel
i bet you dont.doh!

look an example for you,so you can understand better,if you put an transparent layer (0%opacity/0%fill) be2ween your background picture and your text,it will look 200% more clean and you dont really need glasses to read what you wrote there.

because lock/unlocking the 1st picture/background or whateva wont help you too much.

i don't think he wants what your talking about, i think he wants, a transparent background.

P.S you sound like you know everything (no offence) when your telling Toya stuff. but whatever.. Toya knows this stuff, i don't think she really needs help.
Claudel
heh anyway,too bad inhibited_love didnt said the magic words,cuz when someone say "transparency" i think about 2388284 things in the same time so its a little confusing...

PS:TOYA has a "lawer" yay.

heh, yahh i my friends said i should be lawyer toya, my first.. uhh person? Lol?

anyways, yahh i can imagine thinking a bunch with transparency, so i dunno i think its the background, on my computer you do what you do in photoshop convert to imageready, then press preview in browser, then it goes to it right click and press save to the desktop, its easy for me. Lol i work on mac wacko.gif
Mulder
you expect people to help you when you act like this?

and you spelled lawyer wrong.

you've been given help. why is this topic still open? obviously you dont want our help.
talcumpowder
Because the original topic creator still hasn't replied. Meh. I can't really close it until they reply....

Mulder

silent whisper
