Hello, I have some images in my game which are dark in color. Part of the image is transparent which makes it look weird. When i change to 'Graphics 800, 600, 32' the transparency goes away which is what i want. Is there a way to fix it so I can show the images in 16 and 32 mode.

There's a command to change the Mask colour - check the docs - by default this is black. I would imagine that in 16bit a colour quite close to black still gets interpreted as black. Why not color the parts of the image you do want transparent to bright purple and use this color as the mask colour.

Hope this helps.
