PIL Best Way To Replace Color?

Question

I am trying to remove a certain color from my image however it\'s not working as well as I\'d hoped. I tried to do the same thing as seen here Using PIL to make all white pi

Answer 1

#!/usr/bin/python
from PIL import Image
import sys

img = Image.open(sys.argv[1])
img = img.convert("RGBA")

pixdata = img.load()

# Clean the background noise, if color != white, then set to black.
# change with your color
for y in xrange(img.size[1]):
    for x in xrange(img.size[0]):
        if pixdata[x, y] == (255, 255, 255, 255):
            pixdata[x, y] = (0, 0, 0, 255)
