Wow, how beautiful :D

We have a problem with the background color (RGB = 127,127,127). It's displayed and not transparent. Anybody can help?

Try this one attached:
Have no joystick atm, so can't try myself online.
duedel8bit.bmp (http://taenia.homestead.com/files/duedel8bit.bmp)
This first one is a try without changing the colours.
duedel8bit2.bmp (http://taenia.homestead.com/files/duedel8bit.bmp)
This one (No2) changes both the colours and the indexing.

Salute QNM many thx. I'll try it today. What u've done with the picture? Converted it?
Thx again

@Freeze: Hey Fräze m8 :D
If u take a look at ur squad directory all the gifs have a grey background. Can't believe that the pink one will work.

In Photoshop 5.5:
Image > Mode > Indexed color.
If the bmp is already indexed, I switch back to RGB (to allow full spectrum available), put the HTC "invisible" grey in background, then go back to indexed color format.
There are a few choices within the indexed color option, so the best guess is "Adaptative" and "8bit/pixel" for color depth, which defaults the number of colors to 256.

The first one I just go "indexed color" > "RGB" > (and back to) "indexed color".
The second one I replace the grey that is in the original picture with the one you say, R127,G127,B127, but it shouldn't work because it seems all the other bmps in the squads folder use 176-176-176.

So the first one I reposted should be the better.

Thx for explanation. Hehe ur right must be R176, G176, B176 i remembered the values wrong but i thought our logo had these values for background color.
I'll post again if it worked or not.
