Trying to Cut an Image into a shape.... - 10/3/2001 14:23:00
I have an image, regular JPG image. Square, right out of the camera.
What I need to do is to cut this into an Oval shape. No big deal. Image composer does this with ease! So now I have an oval shape that I want. I can drag this to anywhere on the screen. I right click on it and save image. I save it as a JPG file. Now comes the frustrating part. I launch this new file I saved and notice that although the picture is in the shape of an oval, the program saved it with a white background. Why? If I want to cut it and save it as an oval, why do I have to save it as a GIF file with the outer edges as a transparent? Why can't it save it as an oval?

HiTry pasting a "copy" of your oval image ( at time of creating it oval) onto a square/rectangle of your background colour.
Then save the whole lot as your new square image(in JPG). Cheers from the Aussie Outback

Most Graphic editors do not deal in Ovals. All the windows I have ever seen in an editor are rectangular or square.Try as Garry suggested, it should work fine. ------------------
