Color2Alpha v1.0

A feature I use alot in graphics is converting a color to alpha. The only software I know that can do this in a simple way is Gimp. It's the only reason I install Gimp.

Anyway I got sick of running Gimp just to use this feature and decided to write an app to do it. It uses the same algorithm as the Gimp plugin. It supports batch processing, has a colour picker and is very simple to use.
