This has probably been answer before, but how do you get rid of the white background?

[Lillian A Garnet]

Steampunk is luv *cries with happiness* but this is gonna kill me ! xd *first line edit ever*

[Rapidashtrainer]

*counters the kkei* Okay then Kei! I trust your persuasion abilities!!

But rapid was being blind. It was after asking Kei that rapid checked Jinxeh's quest thread... D=

[endejester]

To clean the background I tend to use the Magic Wand in Photoshop and delete the white...but to make that work it needs to be in its own layer over a background layer that you can turn on and off? Otherwise you might have a hard time with coloring?
(I make a layer over the base lines for edits, merge, and then add colors under the lines for clean edges)

Hmm...I know how to do that, but I know there is a way to do it with playing around the the channels tab o:

[endejester]

Um...I'll confess to never having played with Channels? So I don't know emo

[Rapidashtrainer]

The channel method...ummm...go to channels, click on that circular dotted button. It will automatically locate the black lines. Then select inverse. Once done, click delete and the lines will be gone. Now use a black brush and on a new layer, colour it. It should give you clean lines...


Or...just use the layer with the white background, set it under multiply and colour...it works too... =P

[endejester]

Now there is a Q&A thread in the Tutorials forum of the guild!

Rapid I hope you don't mind that I quoted you XD <3 (channels)

[Zirca]

Say harro to Rugeer :V The commander of the Koshka and spokeswomen for the peace talks.

Meowwww

[Crimson Jazz]

But all I can do is close my eyes...

Is it bad if I don't even know what a 'channels' is? XD Not sure if that's a function for a different program, but I sure as heck can't find it in Photoshop~

... and cross my heart and hope to die.
