Transparent

I'm making sprites, and they are not transparent- none of them. It would be a big help to know. They look half decent though.

You can use GIMP to crop out the backgrounds of your sprites to make them transparent. Hope this helps. :)

I use the wand, but when I put them back in paint- It's not transparent.

If you resave with Paint, it will not be transparent because you're saving the sprite with the default Paint background.

I tried it- but then it wouldn't upload to photobucket as a gimp image

The sprite itself before edited needs to be a transparent image. it's usually saved as .PNG.

So when you open that, it should be transparent. However if you use Paint, there's no way to get it transparent unless you open it on Gimp or Photoshop.

Dualot- I get what you are saying, but I have gimp 2.8 and I use the pad (for now) to sprite. I have no idea if this will work just give me time please ;3
