How are you people able to trans an image while still keeping the quality of the anti-alias?
I cant do it without loving it up.
I don't know, I just been doing this for about a year or two. I just find it easy and fun.

if the background is white or any other solid color, a simple "color to alpha" in gimp with some specific selection techniques will do the trick.

if it's a gradient, you're better off trying to make a selection around the object and erasing its edges smooth.

I use gimp and I don't know what that is.

This is kinda what I do.

Oh, I already knew this technique already, I just refused to use it because I thought there was a more efficient and easier way.
Oh well, now I know.

you might be able to do a color to alpha operation a number of time with gradients, getting the end color values of the gradient.

say the gradient goes from red to orange, you'd color to alpha red, and color to alpha orange, again with the selection techniques or else you could forget up your image turning it from purple to green or something.

by selection techniques, i mean just making a selection around the object, inverting the selection so it selects everything around the object, and then growing it by 1 pixel so that the selection encompasses the object more, including it's white edges to be transed because otherwise because of gimp's selection threshold it'll only trans everything just outside the white edges as if you just selected and pressed delete in paint.net.

in some cases it'd be a good idea to feather the selection for that smoother edge, but not too much.

we need more Luna in Season Three, along with Celestia.


I now own Season One as well. soon i'll be re-watching the whole series.

I wonder if season three will have an episode that doesn't relate to the mane 6 but the popular background ponies or the princesses.

Heck why not one of those from two different sides stories? or one where two episodes have the same event but told from two different ponies.

This is hoped for by many, but I really don't see it happening. It might though.

perspective stories are rather interesting. I love it when multiple viewpoints from characters come together to one conclusion by the end of a movie/episode. mystery episodes and whatnot are always fun.





how to play bingo? choose one in each column or what?
Make a row vertically, horizontally or diagonally to win, there are other kinds, but the way I described is the most common.

Scootaloo episode?
