# TJ:
Some may have noticed I'm trying to post a transparent gif. The problem is, it has a white outline I can't seem to remove. I think it's an optimisation artefact.

Any ideas on how to solve this?

# have you feathered the outline?
this looks good on JPG, but borkes up transparency (coz the software doesn't know how to cope with it).
You have to have an (ugly) unfeathered cut around them.

Edit: Oh, and woo to the piccy!

# I didn't see nuffink, guv.
It's probably from anti-aliasing on the outside. You'd need to make a fairly clean line around the outside to avoid that- or do the picture on the same colour background as the board.
Hope that helps.
