Hi guys, i'm new in pixelart and i don't understand all the terms. What's "Transparency - Required" means??
For me, transparency in pixelart just increases the number of colors... :(

It means the outer side of the sprite you draw must be fully (100%) transparent so that we see only the sprite without any background.

100% transparency only adds 1 color to your piece.
