I've created two new templates for BringItIn. 

Basically they are the same standard BringItIn formula with the addition of an extra trap parameter.

The new parameter is called Trap Alpha Threshold, basically only points whose pixel values are greater than this setting are trapped.  The range is 0.0 to 1.0.  0.0 is basically the old style.  1.0 filters out all transparent pixels.  This is very useful if your image is a clipped image.  It can also help create interesting mask layers.  There are two templates, one for direct coloring algorithms and one for a non direct.

There's also a new option for bicubic interpolation and when filtering you can choose to retain the original alpha values of the image (useful for this new setting.)  Also filtering can now exclude transparent pixels.

Thanks to everyone who's let me know they've enjoyed BringItIn.

My last couple of images have used this new feature.

I've attached a zip file to this thread.  Simply unzip the files into the BringItIn directory.  The next time you start the program they'll be available in the template drop down box.

You'll need the version 1.6180339 that I made about a year ago, available at http://www.beautifulandes.com

Ooopps, I couldn't attach the zip file.  The zip file will be available momentarily at my site.
