Photoshopping - Mods

[Davidious]

When modding pretenders, everytime I add my own picture for one, I end up with a big black box around the pretender, rather than a regular background. Whats the trick to getting the regular colored background?

ran into the same problem.

the background color must be black. like pure black, so if you cut and paste them out of the game they lose a little color and the black backgrounds sometimes need redone.
