WTF I didn't even know there was a worksafe request board!! Where have I been...?
Anyway, could someone invert this for me (white symbol), and then make the background transparent?
Thanks.

m8. Come on. You can do that shit easily as fuck. Come on.
On the gimp, use the color select tool, and click on any white surface. The go to colors > color to alpha, choose white, and it'll clean the white border. You could also just delete the selection instead of using the color to alpha tool, but it makes the border jaggy (your original one was already jaggy though, so in the end it doesn't matter in this particular case). And then, you just go to colors > invert, to turn the now black-on-transparent symbol into white-on-transparent.
Alternatively, you could use the color selection tool to select the blacks, create a new transparent layer, delete the original one, and use the bucket fill tool to drop the white color you want on the selection. Though of course, this is specifically for a 2-color case like this one.

Now, you might be asking: how do I make it not jagged?
Well, in a transparent image with a single color like this one, it's actually extremely easy. You just auto-vector it.
On the gimp, right-click on the white-on-transparent layer, and click on alpha to selection. Then, go to select > to path. That will make a vector of the selected border. Then you just need to fill that vector, so create a new transparent layer, delete the original one, go to select > from path, and use the fill tool to paint on top of it. That'll take care of the jagging.

Alternatively, since it's a silhouette you could copy-paste it onto a layer mask and fill the layer with whatever color/pattern you want.
