    Hello!:migrant:

    I am making a (re)texture pack for the game (wich will be a simple 1x1 texture pack)

    Problem is that grass and any other transparent blocks have white boards (it doesn't make it transparent).
    I am using Paint.net.
    I know how to make it transparent, exept that it wont let me (It doesn't apply). :p

    Here is my problem
    Untitled.png As you can see there is some white borders on trees and grass...
    Why does Paint.net shows me that its transparent?:eek:

    After making it transparent, did you save it using auto-detect and not 24bit? 24bit makes any transparent part white. You should only save in 24bit if you are making maps. If for some reason it still doesn't let you, try saving it in 32bit. That should work you.

    edit: Rayne sucks at using paint.net and I've gotten transparency to work every single time on there. You just need to delete the background so you see a checkerboard pattern. Anything that's checkerboard is transparent.

    I use gimp for my transparencies and it works fine, whereas i've never gotten transparencies to work in paint.net

    Well i figured it out and now it works fine!

    It was actually saving it under 24bit.
    Now i just make it as default
