Transparent Background

**TonyComix** · January 18th, 2007

you know how most gifs you find happen to have a transparent background? Well, look at my avy right now, see how the background is clear and never overlaps the color of the surrounding areas? I need to know if there is a way of making my backgrounds of my MSPaint pics transparent as well. If there is a way, please tell me how, it would be much appreciated.

I don't think that there are mspaint upgrades. Try to find free graphic softwares.

You can make things transparent here: http://www.gifworks.com/image_editor.html
Just upload the pic and you can change it online. It will ask you which color to make transparent, so you'll want to make the area to be transparent a color that is not in the rest of the picture, like gross brown or pink or something.
