Post by: csleesburg on March 29, 2006, 10:34:58 PM: There are some slight variations using PSP 9, it's true. First, you can simply change your 'transparency' color to yellow to avoid having to add that layer. You can then use your mouse wheel to enlarge it and see the 'ghost' pixels easily. Actually, when I re-color and/or cut & paste, I usually change the color several times, to make sure I get them all. Then, you can use either the 'Color Replacer' or the paintbrush to color your object. (I'm assuming you're following YR's tutorial)?

Hope that helps? If it's not clear, post again, and I'll try and help. :happy

Post by: Yellowrose on June 13, 2006, 08:12:07 AM: You don't recolor in APE you have to use a graphics program to do that and then add the recolored images into APE to complete your project.

Here is a list of some graphics programs - some of these are expensive so you can also use MS Paint that comes with windows. Not as good as results with other programs due to the programs tool limitations.

MS Paint - free comes with windows

Adobe Photoshop + other Adobe image enhancing programs
Paint Shop Pro
Fireworks
Corel Photopaint

There are more but that gives you a few to search out on google.

Not to butt in, YR, but all those programs have re-size options on them. :original:
