    my art looks super clean in photoshop and illustrator (large sizes). However, when I drop the art into Buildbox the pngs have jagged lines. I have done all sorts of tricks to smooth out the lines in photoshop and illustrator but it does no good. Circles in Color switch look smooth and clean, but I cant get circles etc to do that on my end. Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

    How do you save 24 bit PNG images in photoshop? It only gives the option to save as PNG, is it already 24 bit?

    Yes. 24 bit is the default.

    Does anyone know how to remove the background from a font or image we have already stored on the computer?

    Like for example ,I have many pic's I would like to use on my game, but most of them weren't done especificly for this therefore when added to BB it automaticly brings the full image including white background of the image..
    anyone knows a good workaround for it? I'm no art's master, but I learn by myself just guide me in the right direction ;)
    Thank you

    Hi FranciscoBala I just read your post. to remove the white background, In adobe photoshop., use magic wand tool and select the white background then right click select inverse and then again right cllick and copy the image. Go to image in the menu bar click trim and then go to File and save for web. When you get the option check the preset to be png-24 and save it with the name . Now its ready to be used in buildbox. This method works for all kinds on images with plain background.
