Overlay Question

[Danno111]

I would like to have a "white" frosted overlay that is similar to the black "blur" overlay, but in white. I'm not sure how I can create an overlay with the middle open for the picture to be seen through.

 

Thank you,

Danno...

Here you go. All I did invert the color. You should be able to RIGHT click in your browser and save image as. Make sure it is still a PNG file.

 

Thank you very much! I'm not sure how you inverted the color, but this is exactly what I was looking for.

I found a quick way to create these in Photosuite 9 which is included in EMC 9.

 

Open Photosuite

Create new canvas (control+N)

For UNITS, choose pixels

Click custom

Type in width: 720 Height: 540 (just using those from that file)

Keep the white background, click OK

You should be back to the edit window

On the left, click the ALL TAB and then the ENHANCE

In this tool box click, EDGE

In this example I chose - HAIKU

Double click to apply to canvas. Adjust edge's size at bottom.

Done

SAVE AS PNG and the 'white' part will be transparent in a video.

Unfortunately, PhotoSuite does not have an INVERT function. I used another editor for that.

 

Save this one if you like, too.
