You would need a graphics program like Paint Shop, for instance, that can remove background and save as .gif or .png. But take a look at the link below which might solve your problem: http://linkwaregraphics.com/music/symbols/dottednotes/ Lil ----- Original Message ----- From: "cristy" <poppy0206@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <pctechtalk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: 2008-09-21 22:49 Subject: -=PCTechTalk=- offtopic/creating music note clipart Gman, This is somewhat offtopic, but would you or anyone else on the list know how to create music notes (clipart) in a .gif format but a good enough resolution to look pretty decent so I can insert the notes into a powerpoint presentation. Much of the free clipart online has backgrounds with them, I just want the note. I have a few I found online but they lacked the double sixteenth note. The ones I found are great, I do not know how the person created them. I did email him and hope to hear back. I also wish to create a few phrases (rhythmic patterns) containing more than one note and would like to make clipart with this too. I have Sibelius music program on my work computer and am going to look at that. I know I can create music with it on the music staff but not sure about individual notes to save as .gifs. --------------------------------------------------------------- Please remember to trim your replies (including this sentence and everything below it) and adjust the subject line as necessary.
