Hello. So Dr. Bill, welcome back. In this video, you'll learn how to create a transparent vector image and probably the first thing I'll do is show you what is the transparent vector image.
And I've got probably the probably the simplest document I can come up with illustrate that. So I've got a nice snowfall Tim dot html HyperText Markup Language
I've got body Vg that round color equals take and I've got an image here and I probably should have the width and height and all nuts or other things to that she's created this simple little document if I come up here and change this cake to let's say opera.
And if I was to save this come up here to File, Save. Now, if I come over here and hit the refresh button, I can see that the color.
Of my background is now shining through. So whether I had a color or an image, it would shine through portions of this image, but now that we know what we want to do, let's go ahead and get started here.
So the first step I'm going to do is open up Microsoft Word or to create a very simple little vector image and I'm just gonna go ahead and create another queue. Let's do them. The press on insert
And they're going to come over here to us shapes and right underneath rectangles. Let me go ahead and drag out a rectangle there.
Okay, notice, by default, here it's being kind of blue shaded blue. It's got a kind of a blue line around outside
Someone simply right click and typically I right click on the border like about right here. I'm going to right click and I'm going to come on down and choose Format shape.
What am I gonna do is, I'm going to come over here and turn off the film. So no film that I'm going to come down.
And use the solid line. Let me go ahead and change this to a black and I'm going to go ahead and increase the width and make this huge about three
And call that good. Okay, now to create the cube. I need another one. And these is where you can highlight this one got to edit and copy
Products to do is just simply hold the control button down this the control button and drag out another one.
Now I'm gonna go ahead and select just the bottom one, and kind of increase the size of it to kind of give it that 3D look
Now I want to do is just simply a connect these two rectangles for some lines. And to do that, I'll come up here to insert
Shapes and I'm going to choose lines. Now I'm simply drag out a line and I can see my line here. It's already set to black in two points that you may have to tell you what I can go back up to. We go to three.
And then what you can do once you've got one is you can right click on it and I can set that as my default one. So now if I insert another line. It's going to have that same
Film and with their cell phone to come back up here to insert shapes and I can choose the line, Tom. Now go ahead and create another one. And let me do this two more times. Insert shapes and line and bottom. And one last one here.
Okay, now I want to do is that convert this into a transparent image. So this is kind of like the vector image now to convert it into a transparent image.
And to do that Jesus was getting into Adobe Photoshop. And so what I want to do is I'll do a screen capture. But take a look at my keyboard appear. I've got 910 1112 just to the right of that is the Print Screen button.
A minus and all. Why did you have here's ism to color, the color like glue. There's a chance, you may have to hold another key down
While you do the print screen and ROM is going to go ahead and to my screen capture and that's going to copy what's being said here to the monitor into the clipboard. I'm not going to go into Photoshop. I'm going to hit a file and choose New
And let me go ahead and drag this over. And I'm going to go ahead and press
section down the bottom there. I'm gonna press create. So I just simply I created an image, and it just happens. It's going to match the size of
My screen recording window here at the monitor. So I was gonna need to do is I come up here to edit and paste and paste to what was being sent to the monitor into this file.
Now I'm gonna go ahead and just use the rectangle marquis and Adobe Photoshop. How many create an area around and I've got mine on fixed ratio. Maybe I'll go back to a normal
Create an area around the queue, then I'll go ahead and crop that I just come up here to Image and Crop maybe I'll zoom in. Mr. One time here.
Okay, but take a look over here we've got our background and we've got the cube on its own layer. Now what I want to do is I want to remove all the way. Well, how can I do that.
Yeah, we could use the magic wand, but that needs your approaches. I'm going to first of all dislike this let me come up here to up so that was some select Andy select
These your approach is just to come right up here and go to a select and choose color range. Now I'm gonna go ahead and press my eyedropper
Kind of up here, the top right and press OK. That's going to grab all the white and I'm just going to press the Delete key on the keyboard and that's going to remove it.
And you maybe didn't look like anything happened, but we take a look over here. I take a look at this layer. There is no longer the wide.
So let me go ahead and select this and now they need to do is simply turn off the eye on the background and anytime you see that checkerboard.
That means there is no pixels there. And so whatever your background on your website or if you put this in the PowerPoint your website on your template theme or shine through there any color so
Okay, finally, the last step is to save it and I'll illustrate this one to save it on the go to File, I'm going to go to save as in here. I want to make sure I save it as a gift file.
I'm going to call this one call it a cube three here.
Okay and so Q3 and copy serve you and I'm going to go ahead and press Save and little dialog box and the press OK and OK.
OK, now let's come along. I'm gonna go ahead and modify this and put a little paragraph break
Take this one line here copy
Paste it.
And I will do is put a little three here.
And I'll say, I simply come up here to File and Save and take a look at my browser.
And if I hit refresh here is my new queue. And if I came along and change this back to some other color. You go to Australia yellow see what that looks like. File, Save.
And hit refresh. And I can see, sure enough, the background color is shining through because this now is a transparent image.
But hopefully know this video you learned how to create a transparent vector image and we made it a vector by going into Microsoft Word, which is a vector software application.
Then we took it into Photoshop to remove the white resolved in our transparent vector, Mitch. Okay, so next video. Thank you. Bye.
