The goddess of witchy webcomics


Jan. 13th, 2008 06:50 pm Put down that chainsaw and listen to me

Several years ago, I spent about six hours trimming away all the background of the current TW logo, to give it a transparent background so I could superimpose it over other images (like the splash panel of the Sunday strips).

Six hours.

While trying to find a way to take an image with no transparency and give it a transparent layer (I wanted to cut out a portion of a new strip and paste another image behind it, so that it peeked out through the transparent area), I found out how the magic wand tool works. I tried it out on the original scan of the TW logo that I still had saved, and the job I'd done in six hours took me less than a minute.

All of you who are already familiar with your paintshop programs can feel free to point and laugh hysterically at me. I deserve it.
