[SOLVED] Removing whit in avator

**Go The Power** · 06-08-2007, 08:34 PM

Hello,
I was wondering if it is possible to remove the white on the outside of the octogon in my avator?

Easily. Open it in a program that can output GIF files and erase the white area. Save it with transparency and it's done!

Thank you EB, for that. I just need to fix up the border now!

I know this is an old thread, I was just wondering if you still need help fixing the border? I can't see anything wrong with it so I guess you've already got it done....... which makes this post a bit pointless

Not as pointless as this one

Thanks, but I finally got that single pixel fixed

, I found the problem too, because when I was making the avatar the original size was 1024x1024, and then I had to shrink it down to 100x100 to fit the size.

I now know how to spell white properly too

Did I hear 'pointless'?
