Define transparent area in new template background.
  • For each template image file in Templates folder PM Greeting Puzzle reads transparency mask from a file having the same name and MSK filename extention. To define transparency mask:

    Create grayscale image file of the same size as your template picture. The simple way to create MSK file for TV.JPG is to open TV.JPG in any image editor (say Picture Man Pro or PM Painter). Select the area you want to be transparent and fill it with white color. Fill outside area with black. PM Greeting Puzzle uses gray shades for the transparent area edge smoothing. Save this picture as Windows bitmap TV.BMP. Rename it to TV.MSK
