Transparent Sprites

Piercerocks

I like that you can upload sprites and all, but there is a small problem.
Every time I try to upload a transparent background image, scratch changes the background to white.
Is there anything that can fix this?

I can’t fix anything about a white background but the transparency usually works. Just set your background to something and put your costume as the transparent image.

You'll have to download the image through .SVG (Scaleable Vector Graphics), which Scratch supports. However, .SVG isn't great for images.

You can use the set ghost effect block.

when green flag clicked
set [ ghost] effect to (0)

The block is under the “Looks” Tab.

Go into bitmap view
change to bucket
change fill to nothing (aka /)
click the white space
boom; white background gone

The op is asking about the transparent images from Google Images, not in the scratch stage.

Clear images do work. I have uploaded images with no background using different file types (screenshot-numbernumbernumber.removebg-preview and SVG) and both went well. it seems like you searched for transparent images and found that they're not truly transparent, they just have a plain background.
