I posted this to another maillist and all I got out of it was a fire
storm about compression methods. I don't care a fig for compression
methods at the moment ... I just want to make the white corners of a
green button transparent (using GIMP) for a class. My alternative is
to fire up Photoshop or an old version of Corel Draw! and I am
avoiding those like the plague.
I am looking for recommendations for help using GIMP. Instructions
for Photoshop basically litter the internet, but my chosen means of
self-flaggelation is GIMP.
I'd like to have a book on my desk that I can just grab, but my
immediate challenge is to make
1) a white area on some pre-existing buttons transparent.
(sample button attached)
That's it. Anybody on this list know how to use GIMP for this simple
chore?
TIA
Bill
