Changing background of image

How can I change the attached image with blue background to
the attached image with white background in FW? Is there a way to
do that? It's an image -- not a font in a text box -- so can't just
change canvas color.
Actually, I don't see where I can attach an image; just code.
Well....maybe I described well enough. How can I change an image
with the word, "about" with blue background, to same with white
background?
Thanks much in advance!

Here ya go, I wrote a tutorial on it awhile back:

Changing background Image of a DIV on RO

I am trying to figure out how to change the background image of a div upn Roll-Over (RO) from the users mouse.
My search thus far has led me to javascript, but if any other ideas/method are known, i have no preference for any language.
I have a horizontal menu w/ 3 divs and a single word centered inside each div. I wish to use each of these divs as buttons w/ RO effects.
To do this i wanted to try and make it so upon roll,over the bg would be replaced with a modified version of the normal bg of the div's.
css rules did not work, and i am trying JS now.
Here are some snippets of code that i have writtin and made from sources i have found online but it still does not appear to work when i test in Firefox.
Here is the addition to the <HEAD> part of my html page.
<script src="../quirksmode.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
     function mouseover(id)
     document.getElementById(id).style.background="url('/images/objects/optionsBarADark.png') no-repeat";
     function mouseout(id)
     document.getElementById(id).style.background="url('/images/objects/optionsBarA.png') no-repeat";
</script>
and here is the code in the html page which is supposed to make the rollover casue the bg to change. (note that i have not added links to the text in the center of the divs yet)
     <div id="middleWrapper">     
         <div id="contentMenu">          
             <img class="contentMenuDividers" src="images/objects/optionsBarA.png" width="4" height="28" alt="option bar" /> 
            <div class="contentMenuButtons" id="theID1" onmouseover="mouseover(theID1)" onmouseout="mouseout(theID1)">
                 <h1 class="contentMenuHeaders">projects</h1>
            </div>
            <img class="contentMenuDividers" src="images/objects/optionsBarA.png" width="4" height="28" alt="option bar" /> 
        <div class="contentMenuButtons" id="theID2" onMouseOver="changeHeader(theID2,'1');" onMouseOut="changeHeader(theID2,'2');">
                 <h1 class="contentMenuHeaders">catalog</h1>
          </div>
            <img class="contentMenuDividers" src="images/objects/optionsBarA.png" width="4" height="28" alt="option bar" /> 
            <div class="contentMenuButtons" id="theID3" onMouseOver="changeHeader(theID3,'1');" onMouseOut="changeHeader(theID3,'2');">
                 <h1 class="contentMenuHeaders">featured*</h1>
            </div>
            <img class="contentMenuDividers" src="images/objects/optionsBarA.png" width="4" height="28" alt="option bar" /> 
        </div>
and here is some css for the affected class. the a, and a:hover rules are left-over from when i had the text linked.
.contentMenuButtons {
     float: left;
     height: 28px;
     width: 308px;
     background-image: url(../images/objects/optionsBarA.png);
     background-repeat: no-repeat;
     text-align: center;
     line-height: 27px;
.contentMenuButtons a {
     color: #F9FBFB;
     text-decoration: none;
.contentMenuButtons a:hover {
     color: #F9FBFB;
     text-decoration: none;
if you need anything else from the code let me know, but this is everything i have added to try and get this to work.
Any ideas?

I agre with SnakEyez :-)
Your method seems to be the long way of doing a simple roll-over menu.
Lots of examples here as well:

How to change background image in existing template?

Hi
Current website needs overall change in background image which is already set in template. Is there anyone who knows how to change background image in existing templates?

Make a friend with firebug & you could find yourself from where it is getting applied.
For the website you have given the background image it is using is [1] and it is getting set in css of body tag [2]. So Find the css at [3] and modify it OR replace [1] with other image with same file name.
[1]   www.hanwha.com/etc/designs/hanwha/images/bg-body.jpg
[2]
body {
    background: url("images/bg-body.jpg") repeat-x scroll 50% 0 #FFFFFF;

    margin: 0;

Links in mouseover images to change with the images

I have created a page with mouseovers on page headings that affect the main page image -- mouseover image 1 and the main image changes, mouseover image 2 and the main image changes again etc.
I have set the mouseovers not to revert on mouseout, so the mouseover images remain until you mouseover another of the heading images.
I need to set up links within the main images using image maps (I'd like to have mouseovers in there too, but have no idea if this is possible), links that change depending on which of the images is currently showing. How can I do this?
thanks in advance.

Just speculating here, but as long as you bring in the images to which you want to add the image-maps as foreground (not background) images, you should be able to do this.
That is, set up a "show/hide" behavior and not a changing background image (CSS). Background-images are just that, background, and they don't (as far as I know) have any events associated with them to which to attach behaviors.
You will have to set up the image-maps while the image is 'showing', of course. So before you set up the show/hide, expose the image, apply the image maps, then set up the show/hide.
Let me know if this works out for you!

How do you change the default image at the login screen??

I want to change my default image that is at the login screen. The image is also in the desktop display(so i can set it as my background), but those are the only two places I can find it. Is there a way I can delete the image from my computer?

Well quick and dirty is to replace the applelogo.tif file with a .tif of your own.

Change Background in Menu Creation Encore CS4 and Photoshop

I am creating a menu using Encore and Photoshop. I Used the Encore Libray to create a blank background and also created a series of buttons adusting them in Photoshop CS4. However, when I try to change the background with a new jpg or psd file I open the picture in Photoshop but not as the new background layer I am trying to achieve. Can anyone tell me where I am going wrong?

Dear Bill,
Thank you for your prompt reply. However, I don't think I am explaining my problem correctly so if you have the patience I am sending you this little "Jing" movie which will show you my problem

Subject: Change Background in Menu Creation Encore CS4 and Photoshop
There should be no problem when adding the image of your choice, with Edit in Photoshop.
When you choose Edit in Photoshop, several things happen:
1.) a TMP PSD for that Menu is created.
2.) links are created between En and PS
3.) PS is launched, and that TMP PSD is then Opened in PS.
When one has edited that TMP PSD in PS, they must do a Save to allow those links back to En*.
If you are doing a Save_As, or Save_As_a_Copy, those links will NOT be followed, and the Menu will NOT update in En.
Good luck,
Hunt
I have encountered some instances, where a single Save does not follow those links. With experimentation, I have found that 3 Saves (Ctrl+S) will force those links to be followed, and the Menu updated in En. Not sure why this happens sometimes, but 3 seems to be the "magic number," at least for me.

Changing background on car photo?

Hello
I'm on a Mac 10.8.2 w/ CS6 13.0
I've tried to follow videos and tutorial examples for this process, however I must be missing one or two items...maybe in my set up?
This is one of the tutorials that seems very straight forward(except for a couple typo's) but when I try it, I'm told the file could not be copied to clipboard because it's too large...however it does appear to paste the car over the bottom photo? Or did it?
"First open one of the shots in PhotoShop and select the entire image by pressing Ctrl-A, then cut or copy the image into the clipboard (Ctrl-X or Ctrl-C, either will do the trick), now close this image ... without saving ! Very important, we don't want to change the original image file, you never know you might need it again in the future.
Now create a new document (Ctrl-N) and just click 'OK', no need to change any of the settings, they are set to the content of the clipboard anyway so I can leave them 'as is'. Once the blank document is there hit the Ctrl-V to paste the first image into place. Time to open the second exposure, again Ctrl-A to select the entire shot, cut or copy the image (Ctrl-X or Ctrl-C) and close this file again (Ctrl-W)... do NOT safe the changes to keep the original image intact !
With this second image closed again I am automatically returned to my new document that already contains my first exposure, just hit Ctrl-C to paste the second exposure on top of this one and I'm halfway done already. The order of these shots isn't really that important, you will be exposing parts of one shot into the second one, which one lies below doesn't matter anyway."
Let's say the screen shot below is workable, if not I'll do it the correct way BUT how do I make the brillant layer masking work from here. Everything I've seen says to select the mask, then select the brush, then type of brush, make sure white is the foreground and black is background and just paint. When I paint nothing happens to my images?
Then I've tried going to File>Scripts>Import as Stacks and this seems to bring them in but w/ transparent layers underneath, why?
Thanks
chad

Your screenshot shows Background layer targeted. Anything you paint on that will be hidden by the higher layers.
You have no mask in which to paint. Target the top layer then click the Add Layer Mask at bottom of Layers panel to add a white mask to the layer. White in a mask makes the respective pixels of a layer be fully opaque, black makes pixels fully transparent and grays create partial transparency. Paint with black to mask out parts of the layer and reveal the underlying layer.
Then I've tried going to File>Scripts>Import as Stacks and this seems to bring them in but w/ transparent layers underneath, why?
Thanks

I guess you mean Load Files Into Stack. It normally creates only one layer per imported file. How many image layers and how many transparent layers are created when you load the two car files into a stack?

Change background to white on headshot. new to iPhoto. thanks

change background to white on headshot. new to iPhoto. thanks

That's not a feature of iPhoto. You'll need an external editor for that kind of work:
In order of price here are some suggestions:
Seashore (free)
The Gimp (free)
Graphic Coverter ($45 approx)
Acorn ($50 approx)
Pixelmator ($50 approx)
Photoshop Elements ($75 approx)
There are many, many other options. Search on MacUpdate or the App Store.
You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.

This is the website.

IF you know the exact file name of the download, you can search for it in the spotlight.
(This icon) in the upper right corner.
If you don't know the exact file name, you may have to redownload it so you can see it.
I would also try doing a reboot after you change your desktop background to what you want.

How to change background in bulk

Hi All,
I have made simulation type project in English version using Captivate 4. Now, I want to develop this project in multilingual. I can change the caption text easily using the export command. But I want to change the background for multilingual.
Do you have any idea about it.
Regards,
Manshu

If you have a lot of slides that share the same single background, you can change that background on multiple slides at once by:
In Edit view, with the Filmstrip pane visible, hold down the CTRL key and click on each slide in the Filmstrip pane you want to change.
Right-click one of the selected slides and choose Properties.
On the Properties dialog, click the Change Background Image button and select the desired background.
Result: The background you choose will be applied to each of the slides selected in the Filmstrip pane.
A better approach is to build your original project by importing external images into your project and then using the Update feature in the Captivate library to replace all your images with "localized language" versions.
The advantage of using imported images is that Captivate "remembers" the folder location of each image and you can easily tell Captivate to reimport those images at any time:
Capture all your images using dedicated screen capture software (the Snipping tool included in Windows 7 will work). Save each image to a folder on your hard drive (or folders, if you want to be super organized) using meaningful file names to allow you to easily identify and update each image later.
Build your initial Captivate project by importing each image from your hard drive.
Make a backup copy of the original images on your hard drive.
Overwrite the original images on your hard drive with "localized language" versions, using the exact same file names.
In Captivate, select all the images in your Library that you want to update.
Right-click one of the selected images and choose Update.
Click the Update button.
Save the updated project with a new file name that reflects the new language.
Result: Captivate replaces all the selected images with the updated versions from your hard drive.
If you haven't already been using imported images in your project, you can start by importing an initial set of localized images and then use the Overwrite and Update trick for each successive language.
In a pinch, you can also capture all your images using Captivate, but this requires you to first export the images from the Captivate Library to a folder, then reimport them one at a time from the hard drive to establish the "folder path" that Captivate needs for the Update feature to work.
Cheers,
John

Software/script/automator to change the desktop image periodically

Hello,
Right now Mac OSX has the great feature that allows you to change the desktop image at max once a day. I would like to have an image changed once every two days. Then I would like that image to re-appear after 1 week. Then after a month. And then after 4 month.
Little more to what OS X can do.

I got this from this [little apple tutorial|http://www.apple.com/applescript/features/system-prefs.html]. it explains how to script system preferences (to the extent that it's scriptable).
if you run
<pre style="
font-family: Monaco, 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;
font-size: 10px;
margin: 0px;
padding: 5px;
border: 1px solid #000000;
width: 720px;
color: #000000;
background-color: #ADD8E6;
overflow: auto;"
title="this text can be pasted into the Script Editor">
tell application "System Events"
-- GET DESKTOP PICTURE SETTINGS
tell current desktop
get properties
--> returns: {display name:"Color LCD", random order:false, pictures folder:file "Mac OS X:Library:Desktop Pictures:", picture rotation:0, class:desktop, change interval:60.0, picture:file "Mac OS X:Library:Desktop Pictures:Aqua Blue.jpg"}
end tell
end tell
</pre>
it will list the properties of the current desktop and *change interval* is one of them.
you can also get it from the apple script dictionary for System Events.
