Except for the saving part, where they keep it on automatic...

I know how to make transparent backgrounds, I do it just like that.

There must be a setting or an action that you do that somehow fills your pixels with alpha transparency.

Maybe you have it set to add instead of replace? Although with fully transparent tiles that should have no effect.

Just tried that, also did not work. JTsentinel, do you think you could post the whole tileset with the transparency?

I made this one, it should work alright.

Gee, thanks so much Firecat! It worked.  And to everyone: Thank you for trying to help; I've used Paint.Net for a number of years and have never ran into a transparency problem, but I guess there is a first time for everyone. Also, to Firecat: Could you add a couple of more object to that file? (See attachment.)

GFA101, if you want to keep working on the tileset just do this for now:

One last resort would be to apply a magenta background that, if the image really isn't transparent, the game will remove automatically.

Refer to Farik's levels if you need to see a working example.

Hay, hay, guys! I went to and edited Fircat's version of my set and added a few things and deleted the background around them, and guess what? It did not darken the background!!! I guess as long as I do not erase the whole background of the tileset, it will work. I also unchecked transparency in window, in Paint.NET.  So, it's working so far.
P.S. Thanks sergiocornaga I'll check some out.

I notice that the creatures that were last added need more transparency. Now they have a bit of the background tiles on them at the bottom, left and right of the set. I'm pretty sure you don't want those tiles in your tileset?

Don't worry, I fixed those. 

What if you are using MC Paint? I have the same problem except my background is white... I am confused...

MS Paint can't save transparent png files. However, if you use the color fuchsia (see image) it will be invisible in Knytt Stories and probably Fink. If you want to have tiles that are partially see-through like a mist, then you will need to use a better picture editor.

Guys, how do you save manualy? My paint net saves files automaticaly, and I cannot controll that. I have the same transparency problem, as you understand. I've had it for half a year, that is why I stopped working at my levels, actualy.

Man, I just got it..... Yeah, baby yeah!!!! Denis is back!!!! Hail to the forum, the avatar of helpfulness!!!
