umm im not soo sure but maybe u should go there ^ ( iono if yu already did)

yea i already did... and i followed everythin'...

Your picture is most likely in grayscale. Change it to RGB.

image>>mode>>rgb

no it wasnt on grayscale...it was on rgb. i tried again but it still wont work *sigh*

Maybe try doing it all over again? It's a pain but sometimes you have to do it... just make sure that you're on RGB and have the right color selected before remaking the whole thing. You might also want to keep the old document open just in case. I'm usually pretty good with Adobe, I'm asuming that you're using Illustrator, but I don't know what the problem is... other than not being on RGB or having the wrong color selected.

i keep doing it over and over but it just wont work. but now the problem is that when i do the click object, hide selection, it turns back to the normal picture...

Hmm... well, I couldn't help ya much. I don't have Illustrator; just Photoshop. Maybe you should try posting on the tutorial thread and see if someone can help you?

hm... alright. well thanks everybody for helping me anywaiz^^
