I want to round off the corners on the tables im using, but I cant make the images used for doing so. So I decided to surf around to look for some, and see if I could rip it off from some other site. Sadly I couldnt find any ones in the color I wanted (preferably black), or I couldnt find a complete set to round off all four corners. Can someone please tell me where I can find some or if there is an on-line graphic generator that will help me out. Thanks.

Make a circle in your graphics editor. Crop it tightly so the edges of the circle are right on the edges of the image, no room.

Use the selection tool to select exactly one quarter (1/4) of the circle and crop to that. Rotate that baby and save it as all four corners.

Make sure anti-aliasing is on if you want the corners to not be jaggedy, and that the background colour is the same as the background colour you will have for the table/page.

That's all there is to it.

P.S. You can do this in any graphics editor at all, even the basic ones. Or you can appeal to someone to please make them for you. If that's the case, be sure to include the height/width you need, the background and foreground colours in hex or rgb, and whether you need it aliased or anti-aliased.

That's exactly what I was going to say, as it's exactly what I have just done for a site!

If you don't have a graphics package or you don't know how to do this tell me the size in pixels & colours and I'll see what I can do for you. Smiling

You are my heroin, webmistress. I shall build you a shrine, where I will pray and sacrifice evil dragons to you. I really cant make any images like that for the corners. Im using a sega dreamcast, yes its quite sad but you really cant do anything with it other then surf the net and chat. Im not sure what size and width I need. Anything suitable for rounding off the corners on any size table would be great. I need black and gray corners with transparent backgrounds. I would also like a billion dollars and a sweet lamborghini diablo. Well if you cant grant me any of that I will understand. Thank you thank you thank you!!!
