Hello, I have a question about icons: How do I get the backrounds of them transparent? I've been wondering this for a long time now and I still don't know how all of you have done it. Please tell me, thanks.

Get IRfanView, save your image as .png, with a brightly-colored background (like pink) as the transparent part (the dialog box will prompt you to click on the transparent area first before saving it)

You could get photoshop or GIMP and mess around with layers, etc, but this is the easiest way (IMHO)

Thanks, I'm trying IRfanView now. :)


While we're on the subject, would anyone happen to have an Atari 2600 (32x32) icon?
