As some of you may have noticed, my avatar has blackness behind it and not tfproject color. Can someone tell me what that color is or how to make it the "transparent" color? Thanks a bundle!

take a screenshot of this page and then get the background color from the screenshot.

that's what i did.

be better to make the background transparent, that way you don't have to redo this for every forum, and in cases where people have changed the default background colour settings.

Yeah, make it a transparent GIF, and set that black background to be the transparent color. You can do this pretty easily in photoshop (IIRC, you just save it as a GIF, and there is an option in there to make it transparent).

I did it for you.

Right-click -> save as and set it as your avatar.
