Image Transparency editor

Hi,

Does anyone know if there is an image editing program, preferably free, that allows you to edit or add an alpha channel for transparency for a gif image? I've tried irfanview, but it only allows you to set a global transparency value and even that does not work correctly.

Thanks.

gif only supports one color for transparency. not apha. if you want better quality transparency, use png instead gif.
use the gimp

pd: nephilim by traod?

[Selgin, if you didn't know, the Nephilim were the giant offspring from angels and human women described in Christian and Hebrew mythology.]

However I think this character name is tied more to:

TRAOD=Tomb Raider Angel of Darkness... Nephilim

Ah, I wasn't familiar with any of the later Tomb Raider games, and didn't know what Selgin's "traod" meant. They put nephilim in a Tomb Raider game?

Achem...

I heard from friend that Nephilim meant angel and in that way I named myself nephilim. (I have no idea what Tomb Raider games are :wink: )

yep, tombraider is really my culprit pleasure (and the only one, i believe) and i thought the name probably were from the game.
