So I'm doing the logos for my squad but I'm coming across a problem, I'm using Kegety's PAAplug (1.2) to convert them to PAA files but they don't have the transparancy.

This is what I'm saving them as

Format: Autodetect (Is this even the right format, there's like 6 other options to choose from)

Mipmap filter: Triangle
Sharpen Effect: None
Mipmap Generation: Generate (Count : 8)
Quality (4th notch across) Dithering and Filter Alpha ticked.

I originally did it without creating a alpha channel and then creating one (with white over where the image should be and black for the background i want transparant)

Yet still no dice, it's still not showing up with a transparant background.

Yes, otherwise I wouldn't be able to use the plugin would I?

I was going to try and help you but getting sarcastic answers back has made me decide against it.

Well sorry but what do you expect when you ask me a stupid question like have I got photoshop when I stated that I'm using the plugin and then proceed to list the options I'm getting.

Got it sorted now anyway.

I wouldnt know ive never used kegertys to make paa files. But I would suggest when you come on a forum asking for help you dont make sarcastic comments as you will find very little help of others

Well for a start, it was a rhetorical question and secondly, you asked a stupid question which, if you had any idea of using the plugin (and thus actually be capable of helping me) you wouldn't have asked.

Anyway, let's not continue the argument, I've got it sorted.

Do it step by step, and it should sort itself out. :)
