I have a question pertaining to image editing: I made the background of an image transparent, and it looks fine against a light background, but against the dark background I'll be displaying it with you can see white pixels around the edges. Is there an easy way to get rid of the white edges? Thanks in advance for any help~

      Personally, I'd just open an art program and manually erase the white pixels, or just find a better quality image.

    i'm not sure how well this might work, but you could also select (with the magic wand) the transparent background, invert the selection and contract (or whatever the program might call it, it's the opposite of expand) a few pixels and then erase? make sure the wand thing is on anti-aliasing unless if you're working with a pixel-art kind of image.

    if this fails, follow what artemis suggested or try something creative - like a white outline or glow around the image to hide the light pixels

      hey could someone put this text -

      Code: Select all
      thalia's parents were explorers. lovers of the great outdoors and nature. they were madly in love with each other, and their beloved daughter was the unique fruit of their love. both were shifters; her father a [url=https://cdn.thinglink.me/api/image/665159620959928321/1240/10/scaletowidth]blue jay[/url] and her mother a [url=https://www.hbw.com/sites/default/files/styles/ibc_1k/public/ibc/p/IMG_7320_White-browed_Sparrow-Weaver.jpg?itok=kDd_q0pB]sparrow[/url]. it was only natural that their offspring's shift form was also a bird, a barn owl to be precise. but their passion didn't last, as their winter expedition to a nearby cluster of mountains was their last. right on christmas day, a group of anti-shifters soldiers found the couple and mercilessly murdered them after they opposed slight resistance to being captured. ever since, thalia has hated the holiday season. a hole formed in her heart, and it's clotting with pressured rage and despair. she is therefore constantly battling to keep her anger under control. due to this, she is unsure of what to think of the humans. on the outside, this young lady is sassy and snarky, a constant pessimist who only finds joy in flying her worries away. her rare 'friends' are the few people able to support her annoying behavior, and despite appearances, she deeply cares about them. thalia doesn't like receiving orders from anyone who isn't alpha, beta or head of a rank. the only other adult she can accept warnings and punishments from is elena fair, who is sort of another mother for her (although she stubbornly denies it).


      - inside the box of this code?

      It's not an effect, those are icon overlays.

      Like :

      ImageImage

      If you want to make one yourself, open a pixel art program and 'dither' the whole canvas.

      It doesn't work for me because the images on the side are too big, however, the text fits inside. I'd crop the images, but Idk if you use a Windows or something, because some Windows computers have bigger dimensions than Macbooks.

Hm, I'm not sure if there's a way to do the first procedure you described with the program I'm using, but a white glow around the image is a good idea! I'll try that, thanks~

    You could airbrush? For example, click the transparent color option (if there is one) and click the airbrush tool. Then the 'eraser' would be soft and wouldn't make the erased corners grainy. :3
