NoseArt transparency
« on: May 31, 2004, 11:02:48 PM »
Can anyone help me figure out why my Noseart is being uploaded with no transparency? I followed directions and made sure the background was 127,127,127.. A nice gray color. When I upload it I get a square graphic instead of my circle... Let me know.

Thx in advance.

I had that same problem with the latest  JG26/9th Staffel noseart.  I found tha the 127,127,127 shade of grey was not at all the transparency shade.  I just left the old white background on and it worked fine for me.

FYI... my avatard at the moment is the noseart.  Just save it and check the color props in your graphics editor.

Too Cool... I'm In Worthington, just off of Worthington Galena Road and Worthington Woods Blvd. Used to be in Westerville until the Wife and I split up.. Look up my profile and and send me an email, maybe we'll hook up in the game sometime.. Which Country do you side with?  Rooks here. (If you're not a Rook, you really should be..:aok )

BTW.. The white background worked perfect.. Thx again.

Maybe it is not transparent because it is a BMP file when it should be a GIF.

Give that a try.
