Invisible token border?How?

Post by aramis55 »

As the title says is it possible to make the border of the token invisible somehow?

Im not sure if I understood you right, but using this custom overlay could be what you want. You need to add it to token tools overlay gallery (File->Manage Overlays) first.

Hey - that might actually be a desireable style sometimes! Thanks!

How would I do this in GIMP? I like my tokens square and would like to learn doing it.

I dont know GIMP, but the requirements are simple.

- You need to be able to save a PNG with transparent areas.

- Make the area where your image should be visible transparent.

- Make the area, where your token should be transparent, pink. (Must be a specific pink, RGB: R255 G0 B255)

- (Everything, that is not transparent or pink will be visible on the token!)

How to do this with GIMP I dont know. But as this is all very simple tasks, it should be easy to find out...

Thanks! From your explanation I can do it. I thought though that there was specific dimensions for it. I will use yours as a template.
