Yep, and I for one am getting to where I can use the Alpha Channel
somewhat. I've run into a few problems though like occasional program
crashes and oddities like totally black areas being unused (or turned to
full transparency) or changes in non-transparent parts of the image when
reused as a image_map. A lot may have to do with my misuse of it so far,
but what does work right about it plainly shows its capabilites.
