I'm try to replace all the white in this logo with purple. I'm using GIMP. Anyone know how?

In Paint.NET, there's something called "Curves", where you can change the amount of hue a certain image has, depending on its value (Hue, Saturation, Value). If you find that in GIMP, make sure to select only the green curve, then drag the central point all the way down to the bottom right-hand corner, you should sap all the green out of it, leaving only red and blue. i.e., purple.
 
Hopefully this helps. =)

Thanks man. Big help.

[Badnik96]

Nice. Reminds me of Mike's Fracture.

Does as well as every other IRL bar spinner.

You only need 5 Ants.

no it's irl

[Mr. AS]

ignore the frenchman above me, hes uneducated about how batteries work irl

the only thing i can think of to inprove this bot is to have the back bar flush with the side bars, maybe through the use of a skirt hinge, but thats just nickpicking. it looks good apart from that

Every time I try, it just changes the black parts and the white stays.

That's you moving the curves the wrong way. Try moving the midpoint to the top left instead of the bottom right. Experiment with them, and I'm sure you'll get what you're wanting sooner or later.

(Doing this from memory, this computer doesn't have GIMP on it.)
Open it up and go layers>transparency>colour to alpha, select white. You should just be left with the lettering.
Next, go to colours and brightness/hue/saturation/whichever one lets you change the saturation, hue and brightness in one window. Play around with the saturation and brightness until it's a light shade of grey, then change the hue.

My memory is terrible, but I think it's something like that.

[MassimoV]

I'm on the right path but the hue only changes lettering.
EDIT:Figured it out. Thanks to everyone for the help.

[MassimoV]

Here's final product. Had to make the skin 512x512 so no layers or edges.

[Pwnator]

MINE IS STILL BETTER BECAUSE THE FLIPPER DOESN'T COVER UP THE SKIN

Would be better if the chassis wedge matches the flipper's slope, but that's just a minor issue. :P

[Mr. AS]

i just realized how much progress youve made from building stuff like this

to where you are now. i suppose practice does make perfect

I wish I could match angles but that's been an issue with me building IRL since the beginning.

Oh gosh, forgot about that.

[Conraaa]

Yeah, next time i'll read your post fully before giving GIMP advice.
And nice work.

[MassimoV]

Got a Greenwave style HS. Skins not that great because I can't get any edges.

[Jack Daniels]

Clever. I like that.

I'm not fond of the wedge though. would be nice if it was something other than a sheet that looked more wedge-like.

Also, some teeth on the ends of those DSL bar-guards on the side of the wheels would spiffy it up a little. (I think.)

[090901]

i swear that looks just like one of clicks bots

[Naryar]

Why a wedge on a HS ? Not sure if it's useful, considering the counter-torque.
