Chapter 1 ✦ Getting to Know FrontPage
Making images transparent
Another useful graphic feature in FrontPage 2003 is the capability to assign trans-
parency to one color in an image. To do that, click the image. The Picture toolbar,
covered in detail in Chapter 12, will appear on the bottom of the page. Each of the
Picture toolbar’s buttons is a powerful editing tool.
To assign transparency, click the Set Transparency Color tool in the Picture toolbar,
and point the Transparency cursor at the color in your image that you want to make
invisible. Figure 1-18 shows the Transparency tool aimed at a background color.
Figure 1-18: You can assign transparency to make one color in a picture
disappear, revealing the page background.
Saving images
After you place a picture in a Web page, you can save that picture as an embedded
image by saving the page. As you save a page with a new (or edited) image file, the
Save Embedded Files dialog box appears. Here, you are prompted to save the image
as well, as shown in Figure 1-19.
