These are the same images pretty much. The first one is transparent, uploaded to ImageShack. The second is what happens when my mugshot is uploaded to my FETO account. For some reason, the transparency doesn't want to stick. I'm tried using different uploading services, clearing my cache, refreshing, refreshing by skipping cache (CTRL+F5), closing my browser, etc. The transparency just doesn't want to work. The image is a png. My browser is the most recent version of FireFox... forgot version number. The image clearly is transparent on the forum and other areas, it just has problems after being on FETO. The image is being made as a PNG in MS Paint, then it is resaved by IrfanView by making R255 G128 B64 transparent. The image is transparent on my computer, this forum post, when I upload it to ImageShack, the image preview for this post, etc. etc. Do I need to save this as a gif and upload it, or what? It just doesn't want to work for me. @@ tl;dr Image won't fix. EDIT: This problem was fixed, so the post has no meaning anymore. |

Well I'm no sprite expert.... but when I wanna get somethin transperencied I use http://iaza.com I know it should be like the one in the left already... but what the hell, might as well try again, no? =P EDIT: Follow Tygr's advice. |

First I thought that it might be just that imageshack (seriously, it's not so good :/) but then I uploaded that to my photobucket account and tried it again but it still giving a background.
I made it transparent again but still BG is still there... I don't really know but I would advise not to use that program to do them transparent, rather use FEP's Transparency Script (but before that, do something for that ''transparent'' mug). Oh... Konata ninja'd :/ |

You can also use GIMP (free) or Photoshop to make your sprites transparent manually (not nearly as hard as it sounds) .

Huh. Left is the one after messing around with Iaza and the second one is the uploaded one from the FETO server. And what do you know... it worked. I guess FETO is more .gif friendly than it is .png friendly for transparency? Thanks Konata. (IMG:style_emoticons/blue/cat.gif) |

And nowadays anybody's computer should be able to run at least GIMP (not saying about laptop since I have heard a lot that people have crappier one than me). |

I'm running a laptop, but that has nothing to do with transparencyness. I ran it through IrfanView to make it transparent, which works fine for everything else. Seems .gif is the magic thing here, but it could just be IrfanView not liking FETO. xD

QUOTE I'm running a laptop, but that has nothing to do with transparencyness. Yes, it doesn't. But I said that even not-so-good laptops are able to run Gimp/ Photoshop, so there's no need to any tools or other programs (+Layers (helps pretty much when doing bigger customizing/ splicing sessions (like if example only the hair contains ~20 parts)) and (at least Photoshop) offers usable Swatches (like default colors in MSPaint (Paint's default colors are shitty). QUOTE but it could just be IrfanView not liking FETO Or .png, at least my every sprites are .png and there haven't been any problems with them. |

Thanks for posting about iaza, nothing else was working for me.
Just a recolor to better match the mugshot, but whatever: (IMG:http://i.imgur.com/rUcRf.gif) http://feto.feplanet.net/character/view/99854 |
