hmmmm
does this ever happen to you,
you make a head graphic..
and to test it you name it to the name of a different head..
then you changed to that head but its jut invisible nothing apears..
this happens when i test hats/heads/swords/shield/bamboo rods...



the only thin i can think of that might make a difference is that i have no transparency set..
like maybe it automatically wotn show it since no part of the image is transparent
(i cant make the backround transparent cus i use paint)

would that make a difference

Well.. you probably have it saved as a PNG... which means that you also, while ignoring the transparency, forgot to (or just did not) convert it to 256 colors (8 bit or something).
