Ian, which program do you use to optimize it in Pink like that? I mean, ... my question wasn't about the pink, but rather, the program that you're using. If it has any transparency options, (That are convenient, I mean.) then please could you share it or something? 😊 It would be really kind of you. 😊 Even a slight tipoff as to its location..
You mean what program do I use to make it pink? Or to make it bigger? I just use MSPaint. Replace the piackground with pidnk, and to make it bigger, I just press the plus button on the right side of my keyboard (right next to the 1-9 number keys) That doesn't have any transparency options, but I do have a very nice program that does.
I use Microsoft GIF animator. It has an awsome transparency option (You say yes, use transparency, and just pick the color out of a pallette made from each frame. Though, you don't need to use it for animating. Usuallly, if I need something transparent in a picture, I put the background color pink, turn the bmp into a gif (I use a program called AnyImage to do this, which converts file extentions on images to whatever you want, like jpegs, bmp, gif, ect.....), and then load it into the gif animator. All I do in the gif animator is turn transparency on, and pick the pink that I used. Once I save it, it's a still picture, but I have the background transparent. If you want, I can make a zip file for you of the programs I use (AnyImage and MS gif Animator, you already have MSpaint)
Sorry if it's confusing. I can PM you on it if you want and explain it a bit better.
Well to stay on topic here:
I'm not sure why some people can see the pictures and others can't. I'm guessing it has to do with Invis Free Anonymizer, because sometimes I get an error saying that it can't get a connection with them, and other times the pics work fine :/
Anyways, this contest looks to be running smothly
Since I doubt anyone is going to get 4 or more votes and beat the last sword, I'll just draw the voting to a close. Thank you to everyone who voted, and entered, and I hope you'll do it again this week.
The last sword tiles were made by BH4! Congrats! If you want a trophy, PM me, and tell me what tile you would like on it.
I'll make the Tile Contest #5 tomorrow morning, when I think of a new idea 😉
