In reference to lesson 20. @ the bottom Eric stated that you can check each pixle in your image and set the alpha value to 0 or 255. Can someone point me in the direction or post a code sniplet(s) that shows you how to do this? Thanks! -X-

That''s actually done by adding an alpha channel to your image using an image editor (it creates a grayscale image which is stored in your image), you would then load your image as RGBA instead of RGB.
