: : : It doesn't even protect your graphics very much, 'cause those who are really interested will have "un-dir.ff" programs (check Phoenix' site, http://www.snowcrystal.tk/. Ehh.. There isn't actually an un-dir.ff program there yet, but still, read the "Current projects" section).
: : I'm not doing it to protect them, but to make it a smaller file. Now it's cool, since they're only a couple of them, so .bmp is good, but what if you would have many?
: I'm not certain, but it may be because you used a black background. I think there may be some problem with that, try a white background. (If your sprite is partly white, you may be out of luck)
I did use a white background, that's the strange thing about it. When using .bmp's they show up al right in the game, but as .ff's, they don't. The sprite is blue, so no white's.
