umm.. it wont let me click on "color to alpha" do you know how to fix this? i tryed to start over and i have the same result, would it matter if it was black and white?

It might not work on GIF or 8 bit PNG images. Try changing the colour space to full RGB. (Image > Mode > RGB, I think)

the music is totally a remix of the final fantasy seven "chasing the black-caped man" what version is this? where did you get it/who did it? it is really good (i dont think its an OC remix, not sure.)

[dimage1985]

Well spotted. It's by Rellik, and is called "Chasing the Storm (In Search of the Man in Black)".

It's free on his Lastfm page and OCR too.
