Hi there,

You've probably seen it before. You pick the color from a color palette and
a "bleached" car (or a dress, a hat, or whatever it is) gets colored in the
user selected color.

I need to do this for cabinet doors. Can someone please point me in the
right direction? Commercial solutions are welcome.

Thanks in advance,

-Benton

I am not really sure what you mean, but you have a couple of
properties in CSS to make colors be transparent, google for:
alpha, filter and opacity in combination with JavaScript or CSS...

Sorry if I wasn't clear. I'm looking for a server control, or a DLL, that
could be used to apply the custom "paint" to a .jpg or a .gif image (the
"bleached" item) and thus easily colorize it.

I'll google about CSS/Javascript solutions in the meantime.

Thanks,

This is really more of an image manipulation request where Photoshop and the
like is a better option.

I can't imagine doing it programatically is going to produce acceptable
results.

Once you have the images created, then it's likely a combination of some or
all of these:

Javascript rollovers
CSS positioning (to layer the items)
Transparent PNGs

You could also do this via Flash...though, again, you'd still need the
source images to work with.
