Re: About Free Plug-Ins
Disregard previous request for help - posted a bit too soon. The plug-in was actually in my XPro5 under the plug-in icon which I have never used before.
Unfortunately the eraser feature doesn't do a very good job on removing the white backgroun of my jpg photo. I tried many iterations and still have jagged edges on the object in the photo. Are there other tools for swapping colors?

Ah still with the riding crops...
in this particular case I'd give it a stained glass transparency and then make a bitmap copy [checking true color + alpha is set as colour depth] if you get warnings just click continue
colour shift is sometimes a problem with this method - but not here as far as I can see

Re: About Free Plug-Ins
Thanks, Steve. Works as advertised and the background is transparent but still not completely there. The whip color needs to be white. Changing both contones to white made the whip image disappear. What is the next bit of magic I need to perform?

Re: About Free Plug-Ins
ah now you tell me :D - since you've embedded stained glass transparency into the bitmap - you cannot now contone it white
so, go back to your original jpg and invert the image by setting contone light colour black and contone dark colour white
then as before but using bleach instead of stained glass..
[the effect the transparency types have on contoning is one reason for the warning]

Yep - still with the riding crops. using bleach and changing the contones did it. Many thanks for sticking with this to help.

Hi DocRock,
Web Designer does not support the Live Effects offered in Designer Pro and Photo & Graphic Designer (and Xtreme Pro versions).
EDIT: Should have noticed more posts after the one I was replying to :eek:
