Passive Icon Project[edit]
Many of the icons use GIF format with plain black backgrounds. (IMO, *blech!*)
I've started to work on updating a few of them to PNG with a softened/shadowed transparency background...
BEFORE: 
............. AFTER: 
Photoshop steps:
- Take GIF image and copy, then paste to RGB 8 bit/channel transparent background of the same size.
- Magic Wand select the black area - don't worry about the few pixels that get selected that aren't black.
- 5 Tolerance
- Anti-aliased
- Contiguous
- Invert selection
- Expand Selection by 1px
- Feather Selection by 1px
- Invert Selection (again)
- Use eraser with massive brush (I use 2500px, but more than 100px will do) to remove background and give you finished product.
