Title: start button bmp image bug Post by: Vzdorjii on January 19, 2010, 09:44:38 pm Hey guys.
This must be fucking easy for some of you, but i can't fix it : (http://img51.imageshack.us/img51/1183/sanstitre1nw.png) In fact: I make my image in Photoshop, cause i dislike Gimp. I save it, on an empty background, in a psd file. Then i edit this psd with Gimp. I create a channel (black should make transparency), and save it to bmp. As you can see, for the hover image, i made a glow effect around my image. The bottom image shows what i got by saving to bmp... I'm pretty sure this results of a bad channel property, or something like this. Thank yall for your help !

Is this the way you usually do them, by saving them to psd and then gimping them to bmp's?

Save it as PNG, open the PNG in GIMP then save it as BMP in GIMP. GIMP doesn't fully support PSD files.Is this the way you usually do them, by saving them to psd and then gimping them to bmp's?

(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v421/Heigar/Screenshots/1-21-20101-43-16AM.png) This is what the bmp looks like: (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v421/Heigar/Screenshots/6801.jpg) Done in Photoshop CS4... Steps on how to do it: 1: create your images and lay them out normally 2: merge layers 3: Select menu> load selection 4: open channels panel> create new channel> fill with white> deselect 5: layers panel > create new layer and put below your image and fill entire layer with black 6: merge layers and save as bmp 32bit Title: Re: start button bmp image bug Post by: Vzdorjii on January 21, 2010, 07:26:38 pm I really thank you for your help bro ! ;)

(http://img193.imageshack.us/img193/7592/sanstitre1jy.png) As you can see, some black pixels shouldn't appear in the center of the two bottom squares. Any idea ?

Any idea ? i don't know if it's fixed in 7, but under vista exists a "transparent start button bug". when you take a transparent button, a smaller copy is drawn under the orignal button, which destroys the appearance..
