hi folks,

i'm working on the first theme i've made from scratch (all the others were edits of others'), and in the images i'm making for popups n such, the transparency isn't wokring. i'm making the images with Paint, and coloring the transparent sections with 255,0,255, as indicated by a number of sites, but it's just showing up pink.

when i use the color "ff00ff" it works, so i don't know what the deal is.

is there some line i need to include for it to recognize magic pink?

thanks!

aight, i figgered it out. for some reason (a reason i suspect is connected to ctrl-v), i had [Label]AlphaMap in there; when i deleted those lines, the transparency took effect.

(see that? give a n00b some "alone time" and s/he'll figure it out..)

love,
autrui
