Well atm im working on my Cardas sprite (in custom sprite section) and I know a lot of those nice effect beam sprites wich most of u prob know.(the shiny ones :lol!: )
So i want to use those but if i try to use them in paint I cant cause it gets those black lines ect. so someone knows how i can get them good so i can put them in my sprite sheet...

you need photoshop to to that, I can try and put them on a white bg for you. No promises though.

Or just dl paint.net.

It's free and I'm sure it can do the job also.

Or you can be a purist and not use Photoshop effects.

I would actually suggest this.

The effects you are talking about don't generally look good on sprite sheets.
They only work well with animations and still shots when you put the effect over the sprite like Frost has done here:

Well i dont really mind, but i think that beams would look much nicer with the idea i have for Cardas his atks
