Thread: removing image background color using java??

i have a sprite sheet(image) and i want to draw on screen.


image = sprite sheet image
x = player x postion
y = player y postion
width = player width
height = player heigh

public class main extends japplet
{
 ...
 
 
 public void paint(Graphics g)
  {
      g.drawImage(image, x, y, x+width, y+height, 
	               0, 0, 40, 40 ,sprite_sheet.m1);
  }
}

so on spreet sheet i have a image of player, and its background color is blue. when i drawImage it create image background blue. now i cloud remove the color by using photoshop but i really dont want to do this. bc it will remove part of my player.

is there way to del the background color using java code?? may be there is a funtion?

In my opinion, photoshop is probably your best option since you can remove the background without removing the player's color that is similar to the background.
