I have created a transparent GIF (Pic with white background). I am loading simply by setting the url in the image control BUT the GIF does not show transaprently? My site's background is blue but the white backgroung is showing??? Am I missing something
obvious?
Can't have a transparent background with a color. You need to save the GIF without the background. In Photoshop or Paint.NET you should see the white/grey checker board behind it.

BAM! That was it! I am using ultimate paint which also shows the checkered bkgnd when transparently filled! I was not filling the bkgnd! Sorry, I'm pretty ignorant on graphics (And other things LOL)!
