Helping you to make Transparent Images
This gateway allows you to enter the URL of a GIF image, and a colormap entry
to be made transparent. When you submit this form, TransWeb will read the
image you specified and return to you a transparentized version of the image.
If you have a web browser which supports clickable imagemaps (e.g.
Mosaic, Arena), you may find the
imagemap-based
version of TransWeb easier to use.
It is highly likely that you will want to configure your browser to
"load to disk" before you submit this form, if it is configured to spawn
a separate image-viewing program when receiving images. (In Mosaic,
you can do this by selecting "Load to Local Disk" from the "Options" menu.)
Please:
- specify the URL of the image you'd like to transparentize
- specify the RGB value of the color to be transparentized
- select the base in which you are specifying the RGB values: hexidecimal
(base 16) or decimal (base 10).
