Line 79: * Open your png * Convert it to RGB mode with Image -> Mode -> RGB * Add transparency to the image with Layer->Transparency->Add Alpha Channel * Select the coloured background (green from Charas) Byby doing ~~Select~~Tools->Selection Tools->Fuzzy bySelect ~~colour~~(or pressing Z), and clicking on the green ~~bit~~background. ~~make~~Make sure that the 'threshold' is set to 0 which means it will only select exactly that green colour. ~~that~~Also turn of 'Antialiasing's and 'Feather edges'. These settings should be available on the gimp ~~menu~~main window. * ~~remove~~Remove the green background by pressing Ctrl-xk (or Edit-> ~~Cut~~Clear) * again do select by colour on the white background * Repeat the selection and clearing steps for any remaining green areas, if everything was not cleared at once. * Now make it transparent with 'Layer -> Transparency -> Colour to Alpha' and click 'OK' * Save your changes That's it. Now, you might see that if there was any pure white on the monster itself, like on their eyes, they'll now be transparent. You'll need to paint them on white, using the pencil tool with a one pixel brush and the colour white. Then save again. You can change the background to clear before you change the scale or send it to someone to change it. The order doesn't matter.
