Both work but I always use black nowadays.  Makes it easier to see the sight when you are working on it also.

You're in luck. Here's something I wrote just today.

Check to make sure it saved as a BMP and not a jpg or gif.

An 8-bit (256 color) .bmp.  Many people forget & leave it as a 24bit .bmp.

Hi CAP1 and friends!

Please check this thread:

http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/index.php/topic,274761.0.html

I posted my sight there. DO NOT USE THE ONE SHOWING(It's JPG format and doesn't work)

Use the download link to get the one in proper format(BMP).

Instructinos for using that sight are in that thread. Sometimes I get nice shots with it and get a lot of flak on 200...  :x

Last one, guy said it he must've been hit by flak, cause Hurri was far away.  :D
