New Image Dialog Box
By clicking on File | New you can open the New
Image dialog box. You can also open the New Image dialog box
by pressing Ctrl + N on your keyboard.
You'll find several options available to you. First, you
can set the size of your image and whether it will be in
Pixels, Inches or Centimeters.
In the Image Characteristics you may select from
any number of Background color options including the
foreground or background color on the Color Palette. A new
option available in PSP 5 is that you may now also open a
new image with a Transparent background.
The Image type may also be set at this point. I
suggest that if you plan to work with any of the
filters
or effects that you start with 16 Million
Colors
(24 bit).
