What colour should I paint the transparent sections?
Anything you wish not to appear in the game (i.e. the surrounding space of an item), should be of the colour pink. precisely: RGB 255 0 255. This is because the server will see that particular colour as “invisible”. For example, a sword graphic should be surrounded by that precise colour, to avoid any colours appearing around the graphic. Be aware that any smearing or blur effects will change these colour settings, so do check before you send us your graphics. This also applies to lines and resizes, if you use anti aliasing.
