RE: picture background
Use a program you can make those pictures in using a transparent background, like photoshop for example. I know it's possible to remove a background later on too but once it's merged (one layer) with the foreground (the picture you want) it becomes more difficult (i wouldn't know how to do that, sorry).

Hi agritis, currently the only single layer image formats with transparency are gif and png, I highly suggest you stick to .png for all non animated images you make with some form of transparency, photoshop and paint.net supports .png
