Custom Icons? [RESOLVED]

[xXxSPARTAxXx]

I recently started using RPG Maker VX. I try importing custom tilesets, and face icons, etc. Since I usually have to edit them, I use MSPaint. But then, the background doesn't appear the way it should, there's always a box behind them...

[spoiler][/spoiler]

That big black box behind him doesn't go away. It stays there in-game. Is there a way to make the background invisible...?

It also does this with tilesets.

[spoiler][/spoiler]

That blue box behind the tileset doesn't work, because it doesnt have the checkered background on it. the blue on the tileset appears in-game. I don't want that. all together, it does this.

[spoiler][/spoiler]
The black box behind Brian is still there.

[spoiler][/spoiler]
The blue box is still there, and covering the entire floor...!

Help? These tilesets, and face icons, AND character icons are vital for my RPG's survival! D:

This is for RMXP but I think it might be the same for VX. When you import the tileset/face, isn't there a window to choose a color to make it transparent?

I'm trying that. It's not working for my face icons, but it's working for the tilesets. :'D Thanks!

No problem. =D For the faces, are you sure they are saved as PNG?

Yeah. Their .PNGs... I think it's just becausae the colour im tyring to make transparent is black... I'll try making it green or something.

EDIT: Yep. I changed the color, and it works. Thanks!
