August 9th 07, 09:14 PM
Someone sent me a B-58 Hustler patch with a white background. I'd like to
trim the white background out and just leave the patch. I tried
PaintShopPro but the only method I see is laboriously and carefully delete
the white. Does someone here have a program to delete just the background?
I'll post it here. It's very large but I'd like to edit the background out
before I reduce the size.

Thanks.

I'm not sure of your purpose--are you trying to simply paste it on
another image, as I've done here with a B58 pic somebody else had
posted? Let me know. In any case, I've also attached a PSP file of
the patch with a transparent background. There are several easy ways
of creating it.

I'm also guessing that a more savvy PSP or Photoshop user will know
the easiest way!

Here's a low res tif file if you can use it.
I can send this at about 4mb size if it works out.

I tried opening it in PaintShopPro and it wouldn't work. In Windows Picture
and Fax Viewer it came out with light pastel colors and not much detail. If
you would try sending me that 4mb file I'll see how that one works.

Mine should have worked for you, especially since it was a PSP image.
Did you try it?

Try this....it's a TIFF from Photoshop, and it has a transparent background
layer. Sorry for the size! I had to shrink it a little to make it upload!
