    save in 32bit png
    use paint.net

    //edit: moved to texture packs.

    can you make that statement more specific?
     
  4. Go to paint.net and download the program that is there. It's just known as "Paint.net"

    Whenever you save a .png file using paint.net, it will ask you what bitmap format you want. Select "32" or "auto".

    MS Paint does not support opaque files so you can't make things invisible, it will be white.

    ok, i went to paint.net, downloaded it, soo many times, through this optimum installer thing, and did this, ove, and over, and nothing happens..
     
  6. Select all the white space with a selection tool and delete it (CTRL + X). It should appear as grey and white checkerboard if it is invisible.

    Pixothello? I've heard of it, not sure how it works though, if it is used for texture packs, i might have to download it for my texture's.(mine are a work in progress).
