Sapphira, I'm going to go find a website where you can download Paint Shop Pro for free. I'll be out of the message boards, but i'll find something.

heh I already found a website where you can download v8 for free plus a ton of other software...for only one easy payment of $17

Itâ€˜s-a me, Marionut#1!

Really!?! I've found nothing. But I found a good website where you can download just about anything you want. It's called zdnet.com. If you go there, at the top, go to downloads. Then type in what you're looking for and it will give you a whole bunch of different brands on the same thing-like I typed in Paint Shop Pro and it gave me that and a whole bunch of other downloadable things. The only problem with that site is that the products you can download are mostly only trial versions, but they're still easy to install+uninstall if you don't like them.

Hey, I downloaded a icon maker from that site and I can make cool Mario icons! If you want, you could let me e-mail them to you? I've only done bad guys and power-ups though. I'll draw Mario, Luigi, and the rest of them later.

Sapphira · « **Reply #34 on:** June 08, 2003, 02:26:31 PM »

Sure. ;)

Ok, check your e-mail. Anyone else want to see them?

Those are pretty cool. ;)

Does anyone here know how to make the white in the following sprite transparent?

Open the file up via Paint. Then go to Attributes. Depending on your Paint program, you might be able to have the option of "Transparent Background." If you have it, click on it and change it to white.

White and Black are the two colors that it'll let you use no prob. Having a COLORED background is the tricky part... I have no idea if it'll work on bitmaps, though. It may only work on gifs.

Anyway, if your Paint program DOESN'T have that option, then I can't help you. Unless...you have Paint Shop Pro... *sigh*
The comp (new) I'm on doesn't have that option, but our old one does.

Yeah, here you go, Luigison;

That should do it.

*Sigh* the irony is cruel. I have both a scanner AND Paint Shop Pro, as well as anything else needed to make Mario art, but alas, I don't have the talent to do so (yet). I'd LOVE to learn someday, though. I do, however, leave you with this piece of art someone from my RuneScape forum I go to drew for me:

This was done on Abode Photoshop 7.

Fifth, that is amazing. I mean, really, really amazing. Nicely done.

Thanks Black Mage, but it has to be a bmp for DarkBASIC.

could you send them to me to jon? thanks

Black Mage · « **Reply #43 on:** June 08, 2003, 05:01:23 PM »

I don't believe bitmaps can be interlaced. That is, if they can be, I'm unaware how to do it. Sorry.

jon · « **Reply #44 on:** June 08, 2003, 08:03:29 PM »

Marionut, did you get my e-mails? I sent 2 of icons because I don't think the first one worked and I sent you a thing for your "Star-Spangled Luigi" thing you said in the Interview. If you can't put that up in these message boards, tell me.
