The green in the background needs to be #0000FF Hex. You can't do partial transparency using the green.

To add partial transparency, answer me this: Do you have The Gimp?
Well, I don't know how to make pictures in HEX.
No i don't have gimp, i have adobe photoshop cs3 extended ;)
So you're saying that I shouldn't have a back ground at all?
I will post again when i am done ;)

Photoshop isn't for modding soldat, It's largely for graphic design and photo editing.

(This is technically graphic design, just on a much smaller scale)

Download Pait.NET or GIMP, both will cater for all your modding needs and even some of your basic photoshop features are accessible within these free programs.   I use Paint.NET cause I couldnt be bothered learning to use GIMP and from what I hear its pretty much the same thing -.-

Edit:  thats what I meant, it looks good now (: but it does kinda still have that roundish look, perhaps just a TAD darker ;)

How come Photoshop isn't for modding soldat? Why would a free program be better >:(
And in game the outside of the gun is slightly white, is there a reason for this?

Seiousley, use whatever you want but I simply prefer the free programs over PS.  When I used PS I had difficulty finding simple features that you would expect in one of the free programs (most stuff was buried within the menus)  and It's a lot faster because PS uses heaps of system resource (Ram, CPU etc..) so unless you have a decent system you would probably benefit from using freeware stuff.

Hmm, well my computer cost me $300, it opens photoshop in about 2 seconds, and doesn't really lag, i know how to use photoshop, and i know how to draw pixel by pixel, so, im still wondering why i was getting some strange white outline in the death log, but not in the weapon menu... :S

Lol @ Plastic Foil Effect [makes the "I-told-you-so" look]. Since the P90 has unavoidable straight edges PFE will be unavoidable, too... so if you hate PFE then don't use PNG.

AFAIK Gimp's more proc intensive for me than PS

PNGs can be good but they're mighty fail if you don't know exactly where to use them and how to do it so that it doesn't PFE. Hahahahahahahaha!!1 :|

So you're saying that I can't make ONE single pixel in my interface picture transparent without getting the 'PFE' effect... :(

Yes, because you have to save it as a PNG, and Soldat doesn't really like PNGs.

Hopefully, PFE will be fixed in 1.5 non-beta.

Seriously, though, you could change to BMP easily enough since you aren't using PNG's partial transparency feature. All you have to do is change the background back to green and save it as a bmp.

It's not worth PFE just for that one pixel you know?
