I have been doing the WED Editor tutorial found on the GS7 downloads page. I have reached the "Level Design - Practice/Textures Finesses III" lesson. I have been trying to place some graffiti on my hut, like the tutorial tells me to do.

I currently have Adobe Photoshop CS5. I drew my graffiti with a white pencil over a black background using this photoshop software. Then I added an alpha channel, and saved the file as a .tga file, like the lesson tells me to do. However, everytime I try placing the graffiti on my hut wall, the graffiti ends up being black colored instead of white colored. It is hard to see black graffiti on a dark brown background, which is the color of the hut.

Can anyone give me a clue as to what I am doing wrong in Photoshop, in that it is turning my white graffiti into black graffiti, instead of keeping it as white graffiti?

Try to set the sprite's UNLIT flag in WED and adjust the ambient value (f.i. to 100).

what could also help is deleting the black background in photoshop.

Thank you Superku. Your advice worked. I really do appreciate it. :-)
