**PopcOrn DeVil** · 04-07-2006, 06:01 AM

What you do is make it a .png if it isn't already then make the blackground black and wala, transparency.

**madsoul** · 04-07-2006, 06:22 AM

duzent work for me...

**PopcOrn DeVil** · 04-07-2006, 06:25 AM

Ok wait dude, I'll make it transparent for you.

**Moonchild** · 04-07-2006, 06:25 AM

I think you should be able to set the transparency color in that program. Try searching in the help file.

**PopcOrn DeVil** · 04-07-2006, 06:29 AM

Tadaa! That should be transparent in your game, if not then it's stuffed. Edit it a bit, I think I tore the black shading from the top of the skull, you should be fine to do that.

**madsoul** · 04-07-2006, 06:36 AM
