I have downloaded the 30 day trial version of PSP 7 for a test drive and I am lost. I would like to use it to create graphics for my web pages, but am having trouble figuring it out. I have tried using the help section to no avail. Here is what I am trying to do:

I have a grey image of a star in .gif format. I would like to change the color of it to yellow or gold and add a drop shadow effect, then change the background from white to dark blue.

When I open the file in PSP and try to paint the star gold with the fill tool, the color I select paints the entire area, not just the star and the drop shadow effect is not available.

I have many other images I would like to touch up and antialias. Is PSP the program I should be using for this?

I have tried creating a new file and cutting and pasting the star, but it still doesn't work. Please tell me there is an easy way to do this!

I have been reading the help files for a while here and still cannot figure thi out.
Thanks,
Deborah
