Hi, I'm "trying" to duplicate the background this website has.

The Gradient ends.

But I can't get my test gif to have transparent ends ( clear with just the gradient on the ends )

what am I doing wrong?

you have to place the transparency map into the color table...
i think the left button on the bottom... Razz

or choose in the drop down transparent!!!

if you do a gif like that, it becomes horrible when transparent, unless you wanna use png-24, that weighs a ton, i suggest you keep the bg color the same as where you're gonna integrate your gif.

Thanks Supa!

Keeping the same bg color works great!

Why did I think of that?!? Doh!

Thanks!
