Hey Everyone,

So as I sit here using the fuzzy tool feeling like the slowest species of early mankind, I'm thinking there MUST be a more intelligent and effective way to remove the white color inside the letter 'B' from a series of characters.

Anyone care to share?

Feeling like i'm on the 'Letter B chaingang' here...LOL

Have you tried, Select by Color?

Thanks Odinbc,

Learning more and more each day.

Odinbc's suggestion seems to be your best bet, as long as the color you're looking to remove is on the same layer.
Have you also thought about maybe replacing the "B's" altogether, using a comparable text type, size and color? Doing it this way would give you a better/cleaner looking "B".

To do it properly, don't do just "Select by color"+[delete], this will either leave you with afiant white rim, or with jagged edges (depending on selection threshold). Instead do:

- Select by color
- Select/Grow and grow by one pixel (the selection should cover the border of the B)
- Colors/Color to alpha (using white)

Yeah ofnuts,

I am trying to lock this tip in my head you have shared with me now twice.
So good looking on that tip

Hey Wallace,

I'll have to give that a shot as well, for knowledge sake.

Sounds like a plan.
