I need some help.
« on: May 27, 2009, 10:28:26 PM »
I new to messing with pics and things. I only have windows paint right now. Can someone tell me any easy way to get this patch out of the square so the white box isnt visible and you see only the patch.

And or some advice on a good inexpensive program.

Google and download GIMP 2.  It's free and you can set transparencies
