Can you see The gif doesn't show a background because the "background" is green and the transparent color is set to green. And in my opinion whoever created the file in the first place messed up by setting the background color different from the transparent color, but that's just my aesthetics, and not any standards. > anything in the listing that I haven't that will help me to know what > color I need to set transparent for the BMP? I tried setting (0, 255, hum?

I guess you can probably read the original gifs and grep for the transparent color line and set it from there. But, I've never seen transparent bmps, so I don't really know.
