Lately, I've been trying to make images with transparent backgrounds, but they all end up having a white background. This doesn't happen to my older avatar, though.

Look at my current avatar. It should have a transparent background, not a white one.

Example (same image, different forum) : http://forums.elswordhq.com/topic/7412578/1/#new


However, older images I've made, in the exact same format, turn out to have transparent backgrounds.

Example :




I'm doing the exact same thing to make the images have transparent backgrounds, but the new ones keep getting white backgrounds on vBulletin forums. I don't understand...

If the dimensions or file size are too big, the image will be resized and lose any transparency.

The image isn't/wasn't too big. It was actually smaller than the size limit.

The fact it's a png being served as a gif probably isn't helping.

I think vBulletin is just not liking what Paint.net is doing to the new images I'm making. >_>

I saved it with a browser program and it seems to be working now. I wonder what's causing it, though... I haven't messed with, upgraded, or anything with the program at all. I've been using it to make avatars and stuff for a while now. Same process and all.

ShiKage, your elsword forum link requires me to login. Just FYI.

Oh, sorry. :S I guess it doesn't matter now.

justin, This is what happens when you dont let me teach you how to use photo editing programs.

.... at least download GIMP if you refuse to use Photoshop. T.T Learn things!

I've tried download your example avatar, uploaded as my own avatar.The forum change it to gif.
suggestion for you: upload your png to image hosting server, and use option 1 (Enter the URL to the Image on Another Website) in your avatar setting page
