# Color in Love Heart

I would like to use the Photo Clipper shape of kiss my armpit that they provided as an answer to Can we make a love heart with LaTeX?. However, I would like to have the background around the heart in red (except for the picture). Can anyone help me with that one?

\documentclass[border=12pt,pstricks]{standalone}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\newsavebox\IBox
\savebox\IBox{\includegraphics{pretty}}
\usepackage{pst-plot}

\def\x(#1){sin(#1)^3}
\def\y(#1){(13*cos(#1)-5*cos(2*#1)-2*cos(3*#1)-cos(4*#1))/16}

\psset
{
algebraic,
plotpoints=100,
xunit=.5\wd\IBox,
yunit=.5\ht\IBox,
}

\usepackage{mathtools}
\begin{document}

\begin{pspicture}[showgrid=false](-1,-1)(1,1.5)
\begin{psclip}{\psparametricplot[origin={0,0.15}]{0}{\psPiTwo}{\x(t)|\y(t)}}
\rput(0,0){\usebox\IBox}
\end{psclip}
\rput(0,1.25){%
\color{red}\large
\displaystyle\! \begin{aligned} % x(t)&=\sin^3 t\\ % y(t)&=(13\cos t -5\cos 2t -2\cos 3t -\cos 4t)/16 \end{aligned}}
\rput(0,1){
%HAPPY BIRTHDAY
}
\end{pspicture}

\end{document}

• The first question was about getting a result and it was answered in the comment section by Ignasi & Huang_d. Now, I need to change the result. Jun 12, 2017 at 23:26
• Fair enough. Nonetheless, consider whether this question could be better merged into the previous one, as an edit.

• What do you mean by "everything red"? You mean the white background around the heart? Jun 12, 2017 at 23:42
• It was about the background around the heart, thanks! Jun 13, 2017 at 11:09

You can use the pagecolor package to do this:

\documentclass[border=12pt,pstricks]{standalone}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\newsavebox\IBox
\savebox\IBox{\includegraphics{duck}}
\usepackage{pst-plot}
\usepackage{pagecolor}
\pagecolor{red}

\def\x(#1){sin(#1)^3}
\def\y(#1){(13*cos(#1)-5*cos(2*#1)-2*cos(3*#1)-cos(4*#1))/16}

\psset
{
algebraic,
plotpoints=100,
xunit=.5\wd\IBox,
yunit=.5\ht\IBox,
}

\usepackage{mathtools}
\begin{document}
\begin{pspicture}[showgrid=false](-1,-1)(1,1.5)
\begin{psclip}{\psparametricplot[origin={0,0.15}]{0}{\psPiTwo}{\x(t)|\y(t)}}
\rput(0,0){\usebox\IBox}
\end{psclip}
\end{pspicture}

\end{document}
