Snowboard Kids 2 - Wear Booth [56K Unfriendly]

enigmaopoeia · May 24, 2011#12011-05-24T21:11

While I am slowly working on compiling images for the Snowboard Kids Wikia, I will showcase what I have taken so far. Basically here are pictures of the character's costumes [Winter, Summer, Space, and Halloween] in Snowboard Kids 2. All of the images are transparent [Thanks to Joe for helping me out!

] and are in PNG format. Unfortunately, I do not have the resources to take screenshots of them from behind, so I can only do the front and side for now. Enjoy!

What's the software you've used to make them? Can't you save them as 32-bit pngs with transparent backgrounds?

I am currently using Paint Shop Pro. I never heard of saving transparent PNGs as 32-bits [Then again, I'm not really much of a graphics person. Haha.], and I would love to know how to do that.

Which version are you using? I'm using X3 and when I save a file as a png, it by default saves it as 24-bit if there's no transparency, or as 32-bit if there is. It should only be 256 colours if you're saving it as a palette based png. But you could try clicking Options > Run Optimizer when you're saving it and checking 24-bit on the first tab and alpha channel transparency on the second, then saving?

Edit: If you can't do it yourself, I discovered it's fairly easy for me to fix them. All I have to do is save it with the transparency channel set to your blue colour.

I am using an old dinky Paint Shop Pro 8 because it's easier for me to use. I am gonna try to mess around to see if I can get the same effect as you done with transparency. Thanks for letting me know!

I have no idea then! Here are the others if you want them:

Much appreciated, Joe! I was messing around and I think I was able to figure out what you were talking about.

For Paint Shop Pro 8, I had to go to File > Export > PNG Optimizer > Then I clicked on the alpha channel transparency and it worked like a dream! Thanks so much, Joe!
