Sometimes, you find a drawing or similar image useful for a Wikipedia article, that was saved as a JPEG but should have been saved as a PNG.JPEG is good for images where the color changes fluidly throughout the image, like in a photograph, whereas PNG files are good for images with relatively few colors, such as a drawing of a flag, a chart, or a map; note that sometimes SVG is better.
Force it to be RGB: Gimp > Image > Mode > RGB, click. Delete the grey : Colors > "color to alpha" pop up > uncheck "preview", click on the horizontal color rectangle > "Color to alpha color picker" pop up> bottom right corner, click on the icon eyes dropper > choice you color of to delete (some grey pixel in a flat plain) > validate.
GIMP: The GNU Image Manipulation Program is a popular open source software available for Linux, Windows, and macOS. While it has fewer features, GIMP can be compared to Photoshop. While it has fewer features, GIMP can be compared to Photoshop.
The top layer (the bird) is partially transparent, so the background clearly can be seen through its wing. In this picture the top layer has a drop shadow , a red color overlay of 40%, a gradient overlay from red to yellow of 20% opacity, and a slight bevel effect.
A 2-bit indexed color image. The color of each pixel is represented by a number; each number (the index) corresponds to a color in the color table (the palette).. In computing, indexed color is a technique to manage digital images' colors in a limited fashion, in order to save computer memory and file storage, while speeding up display refresh and file transfers.
The GNU Image Manipulation Program, commonly known by its acronym GIMP (/ ɡ ɪ m p / GHIMP), is a free and open-source raster graphics editor [3] used for image manipulation (retouching) and image editing, free-form drawing, transcoding between different image file formats, and more specialized tasks.
XCF, short for eXperimental Computing Facility, [1] is the native image format of the GIMP image-editing program. It saves all of the data the program handles related to the image, including, among others, each layer, the current selection, channels, transparency, paths and guides.
Common color depths are 2, 4, 16, 256, 65,536 and 16.7 million colors. The JPEG and PNG image formats are capable of storing 16.7 million colors (equal to 256 luminance values per color channel). In addition, grayscale images of 8 bits or less can be created, usually via conversion and down-sampling from a full-color image.
