first make your image with no backround at all... make the BG transparent, in PS the known because the BG is checkered black and white.... then you make your complete image on the transparent BG.. you don't have to worry about colors so don't change it to 256.. leave it alone.. then you just save the png making sure the bg is still transparent... then load it into rco edit.. gimp and paint.net i know for sure doesn't handle alpha channel transparecy as well as photoshop.. but umm png works alot better than bmp now

I'll give that a try, and no, I wasn't simply opening a bmp and saving it as a png. I had made my own images, but perhaps the alpha channel is what is screwing up the png. I'll go give it a try right now. If you look at the alpha channel in the bmp I posted earlier it should have worked, as it did with the main icons, but not with the sub icons.

even if you didnt open a bmp and save as a png, you still made it as a bmp and png is a different process, bypassing alpha altogether.. im almost done fixing the pic as a png, then ill test it before i post it

send me your rco... and make sure you go to option in rco edit and make sure don't compress images and models is unchecked.... i made this one.. see if you get the same results

lol i don't need it now.. i figured out the problem... yes im a genius LOL joking.. anyway change your dimensions.... that's what causing it.. see

no the png i made with the original dimensions didnt work either so i thought about it and changed it to the same dimensions in an rco i made and make it same 61x61 i used in that rco... i don't think theres a limit.. that's what's weird... alls i can say is try different dimensions and see what works... i know for a fact 61x61 works and so does 64x64.. or ask zinga if theres a limit....

Mine's still not working

Does this have anything to do with the fact that the compression is "Deflate"

I've also realized something else
Your trying to import an image with no alpha and my image is entirely alpha so it doesn't matter between those two settings.

Ok I think I got somewhere...
by extracting and reinserting my image I was able to get rid of some of the and making the image more alpha...ey?
But after I did that two time I tried to reload and it said "runtime error 9 subscript out of range"
so what ever subscript is I'm assuming its related to that

SUCCESS!!!!!!
Okay Here's how I was able to make a completely alpha image...

okay when your in photoshop go to the channels section in the lower right toolbar (by default its set to layers)
then you should have the channels
RGB
Red
Green
Blue

ok then look near the bottom right corner and click the square with the smaller square in it... this will add a new layer.
from there turn the paintbrush black and color all parts of your image black that aren't in use (the stuff you want see through or clear). From there save it as a bitmap with the alpha channels checkbox checked.

after that I imported mine and now I have a perfectly transparent unliney space

I still don't know how to fix my other of things exporting with the image half white and half normal
