tbh, you never can get the original alpha-blending, unless you compare your trials with the original again and again until you have the right opacity for each pixel...and 255(?) possible opacities x 19 x 19 x the time you take to compare = VERY LONG.... So, again, nice trick, but it wont let you get the original with the original transparency...

(Is it that difficult to copy a file from a directory? lol)

* WDZ dunno... :^)

Are they stored in %appdata%\Microsoft\MSN Messenger\xxxxxxxxxx\CustomEmoticons? That folder is empty right now, so I can't be sure... :dodgy: What format are they in? blahhh.dat like the other stuff? :P How do you identify which file you want?

DP's and CE's of your contacts are always automaticly stored in your "Temporary Internet Files"-folder as normal png files with a *.BIN extension. Just copy those files to any other folder, rename them to *.PNG and your done.... There is NOTHING more you must do....

I personally don't mind if the transparency doesn't match exactly 100 percent with the original one... it's good enough when the background is shown properly along with smooth edges of the emoticon...:)
