Need Help With Making Transparency (GIMP)

spirosster · 12-26-2006, 12:12 PM

Hello, I've recently been using GIMP to make a regular crosshair.
I read the tutorial section on how to make the crosshair transparent, and yet, I do not understand how to do this.

Can one of you help me?

Thanks in advance =D

well...all you pretty much need to do is select the background layer and press ctrl+a and then delete. it will delete all of the background and leave the file transperent
