Transparent Background?

Postby Whitesnake » Wed Aug 31, 2011 4:27 am

Hello! I was just wondering how to make an oekaki drawing have a transparent background when I post in my signature. Also, while I'm posting this, how do I rename layers on my drawings. For example, instead of Layer 1, Layer 2, etc. I want them to say Lineart, Background, etc. Thanks to any and all who answer and have a lovely day!

First, you have to make sure that when you open the picture in oekaki program, the background is checkered with white and gray. That's how transparency is shown (just ignore this if you know this already. :3)
Then, when you get the url from the oekaki, change the "format=auto" to "format=png", since jpg doesn't recognize transparency.

You rename layers by double clicking on the "layer -insertnumberhere-" and then just writing it. :>

Thanks! I already knew about making the background checkered gray and white, but when I posted the url it showed up with a white background xD So thanks for the jpg. to png. tip ^.^ Also, thanks about renaming the layers. I guess I'm just to blind to realize I just had to double click it. Thanks!
