Help needed re Image for site

[richardjamesh]

Hi there people, I have an image for my website I would like to use, but it has a white background and I don't know how to get rid of the white and just leave the image if that makes any sense?

Does anyone know a quick easy way to get rid of it?

Many thanks,

I have attached the file of the image if anyone would be so kind to help.

It just needs cropping in a picture editing prog like Paint Shop Pro or Photoshop. You can even do it in microsoft paint. It will only take about 10 seconds.

I can do quite a bit with my different softwares yet I have never had the reason to do something like that, thats why I wanted to try, and I have found it not as simple as I thought!...Im sure it is once you know how!..lol

Hi richardjamesh,

Did you want to crop your picture or do you want a transparency?

BV does not support PNGs, so no tranparency. Also, cropping is good if you want to get your cropped picture into a graphics program, but if you need to save it, in order to import it in BV, it will again have the white background.

Re: Help needed re Image for site

you can change the background color of the pic - IF the background color is not a color in the pic it's easy - and can be done to match your site - with most any program.

Yes, Bethers' is the only way to go. Have a look at: http://www.navaldesign.info/Italiano...zione_ita.html

The engine and the valves have been cropped, i then added the shadow, then inserted them on the background, and the WHOLE background plus pics have been saved as a single jpg
Of course this has to be done outside BV.
