You just mark the box next to "Preserve Opacity", .. but it may have a different term if you have a different version though... Here's a screen shot:

midorynn In reply to Chap0ng [2013-01-12 08:22:54 +0000 UTC]

Pixelmator? A pixel-creating program, I suppose?
I don't think you can blend with pixels... O_O

DDT87 In reply to midorynn [2012-11-27 11:15:57 +0000 UTC]

The next time I would try something different, doing all he shadows in black and white adding the color just at the end with multiply levels, that could lead to intersting results. Xd

midorynn In reply to DDT87 [2012-11-30 06:13:42 +0000 UTC]

Hmm, for that I think Overlay layer mode is better than Multiply, because it will not make your desired color into a darker shade, unlike what Multiply do.. You should try it!

DDT87 In reply to midorynn [2012-12-09 21:04:08 +0000 UTC]

Overlay, right, I usually try them randomly because I always forgot what they do! XD

Aniway, tried today and the result it's reat! °°/

Time to upload something new. X3
