Hey everybody!

I've worked quite hard on a Swedish Police texture on BPM's BMW 330i MET. I'm almost done however a problem I have are the windows. On the front windshield there's two (2) dots which I just can't remove for some strange reason, same with the backwindos there's two (2) Battenburg reflexes which I either want to get rid of, or to change it to the right color for the texture.

It's quite hard to explain the issue but it's not in the texture itself, but in a seperate thing which is called "windows". I use paint to create my textures and it doesn't seem to work since I can't have "invisible" stuff behind the dots & reflexes when I try to change the color.

Please anyone who could help me or make it for me would really help me, and of course you'll get credit for helping me once the texture is released.

 

Thanks for reading and please look at the two (2) pictures I've attached to increase your knowledge in my problem.

Thank you for reading and looking at the pictures!

The best thing to do is to use a more advanced photo editor, such as GIMP (free), Paint.NET (free), or Photoshop (paid). That way you can easily remove the yellow dots. I'd recommend either GIMP or Paint.NET if you're starting out, as Photoshop is quite advanced for beginners.

The thing is that I'm using paint (the default on windows 8), is Paint.net a different version? I've made 2x textures earlier with paint and only had small problems/issues.

And in the paint I'm using I can remove it or change the color just that the background which should be "invisible becomes a strange brown-ish color and the windows aren't transparent anymore

Paint.NET isn't created by Microsoft, it's a third-party program. The reason you're having the problem with the windows is, Paint (Microsoft) doesn't support transparency; whereas Paint.NET does. If you'd like it, here's a link for it: http://www.getpaint.net/

You can download Paint.NET here (http://www.getpaint.net/).

Yes, Paint.net has lots more features and is tons easier to use.  I use it to make all my textures as well as editing window tinting like you are trying to do.  It's basic but it has everything you need.

Well thanks guys for pointing out my stupidity when it comes to IT  

Haha! No, but thank you so much, finally! I've got the same stuff as the tutorials at youTube. No wonder why I were comfused because they had stuff which I simply couldn't have or didn't have
