Why can't we use transparent backgrounds? or if we can how? or am I a noob. I tried png, gif and jpg, they all get filled with color when I upload.

That is a good question. I honestly don't know the answer, because originally I remember planning for transparent backgrounds. That's one of the reasons I chose png as the file type of the output.

I'll have to look into this some more, but I'll get back to you.

Whooooo! I think I fixed it. I was able to upload a transparent version of Xbox America's logo and edit it. I recommend using a transparent png.

Thankyou Witness, You rock.
EDIT: Nope still didn't work for me

All the black around the outside is transparent in my program, but not when I upload.

Okay, this is puzzling me. The backgrounds are being uploaded as transparent (example), but when they're introduced into the card they lose the transparency.

I'll get back to you.

Hey, thanks for adding the Achievements part, but the %achievements% isn't working. The %TotalAchievements% is, though. If you could please, try to incorporate it for the last games played, and if you could get a progress bar as well? Thanks again.

Okay, I updated the codes. They're in the select menu now too. I had to change the codes due to an encoding problem.

The new codes are:
%x_earned_achievements%
%totalachievements%
%x_earned_achievements_pct%

But, like I said, they're in the select menu now too.

As for the progress bar, that's not something that's easily supported at this point. I'll look into it for the future though.

Not yet. Weekends are when I get time to work on Xbox America and its related sites. I'll take a look again this weekend.

Okay. I attacked the problem again tonight, and I think I've resolved the all the issues. Using that background you uploaded I was to quickly create this bad boy:

Let me know if you still have troubles, but I think everything is fine now.

Thanks again, I think I can work with that. On that BG though inside the red border is black before I uploaded the first time, I'll try later to upload again.

Okay, I took another look and made another fix. This time everything should be perfect, but based on my track record with this problem so far, who knows.
