Help with Tilesets

Hello all,

This is my first post here and i just love this website for its content.

But lets get straigtht to the point.
I found some nice tilesets on several websites and I imported them into my project.

Now the problem is the following... Well if you look at the picture it wil be pretty clear...

How to get rid of that lame white stuff, and get it transperent just like any default tileset...

Hope you can help me out...

For starters, are you sure you aren't putting stuff on the first layer?

Anyway. When you import the tileset (via the importing tool) it should appear, right and left click on the white and it should make it transparent.

And just double check you aren't putting the chairs on the first layer/

Okay, when your importing the tileset into the project, make both the Transeperant color and semi-transperant into white.

If that doesn't work, then open up Photoshop/MS Paint/Any layer based program, and use the magic eraser (Photoshop tool) to remove the whole background. Since some of the white maybe has a different white.

@ShellShocked: If it were in the first layer, the surrounding would be lighter not dim.

Quiet you. D;

I only realised that AFTER I posted.

Ok thank you guys..

When i get home ill give it a go.
If it doesn't work i'll let you know ..

Thanks again..

EDIT: It worked thank you very much I shall close topic now
