it looks like in the phobeus mod they somehow managed to get some of the graphics to have transparent backgrounds, im not shure if its just an illusion or what, but if there is something i need to do to the backgrounds to get it to do that let me know and ill add it

It's the colour, see how the backgrounds on most graphic sets are screaming pink? The game ignores that specific screaming pink colour. Or at least, I'm pretty sure.

That specific magenta color only works for .bmp images. You need to use the exact color.

With .png images you can use "normal" transparency as long as your graphics program supports it.

EDIT: Also keep in mind that when the background is transparent, you won't see the tile that is underneath your creature in the background space - you'll see whatever background color you specified.

Making the creature graphics background black creates a nice effect. The game does not alternate the black color to blue, and only alternates other brighter colors.

Thank you for all the fish. It was a good run.

Sorry to come in here with humor on the mind, intending to derail a bit all in fun, but here goes:

Do the ponies get fat like dwarves tend to?

As larger creatures, does their fat protect them even more?

Will Tubby McPony in year 10 of a fortress be a bit slower but even tougher?

Where is the chemistry
They tried chemistry once.
It created soap.
Dwarves lost interest in chemistry after that.
