  • Transparent images

    Hello.
    Is it possible to have trasparent images in bluevoda?

    e.g. your buttons.

    because on my site i have big white pixels around my nav boxes :(


    Also bluevoda seems to have a problem with .png files :S

    That would be a great new feature for the next version.

    with the png files if you view or publish your web you will see the files then. It seems to show as cannot find image or something like that in BV but when you view or upload your images are shown. - thats what I found with mine.

          BlueVoda already supports transparent (gif) images.
          It doesn't support PNG yet, because Internet Explorer does not support transparency for PNG. A second reason is that it will take a few weeks to implement this feature and since the average user does not care about PNG, until now it did not have our highest priority.
          The upcoming version IE7 (scheduled for 2006) will support transparent PNGs and we might add it to BlueVoda as well.

            What i meant is like on microsoft word where bring up the image tab, click on the set transpartent colour icon, then click on the colour and then its transparent, anyway if its to hard to have a transparent png couldnt you make it so voda changes the format?

            Anyway thaks for looking at this.

              There are two different kinds of transparency:
              1. palette based transparency
              2. per-pixel alpha transparency
              The first is already supported by BlueVoda. Also for the navigationbar!

              Some of the included buttons (bluevoda/navbar folder) do have transparency, but most of them don't. To make them transparent you'll have to edit the bitmap using an image editor like Paint Shop Pro or Photoshop.

              The PNG format uses per-pixel alpha transparency and cannot be converted to gif, without loosing the alpha channel information and reducing the color palette to 256 colors.

              For more information about the upcoming transparency support in Microsoft's IE7 go here: http://blogs.msdn.com/ie/archive/2005/04/26/412263.aspx

                download a gif image editor for free

                http://www.mindworkshop.com/alchemy/....html#download

                Export or convert your images into gif format before using this tool but this is free for what you need at the time you need it.
