Ok, here i am, again, with my silly questions about hollywood and its functions.. don't kill me, at least, not this time :-P

I was reading the doc about sprites creation and i would like to know if i can use the GIF format to create my graphic and sprites or if i have to use png format.. Honestly i would like to use the gif format as it is perfect, imho, to create 8bit graphic (256 colors) and set up the transparency color (setting it using the color code on Hollywood).

Thanks guys :-)

hello hello i'm a nooob as you and i will tell you about a project i heard of

at first a friend with a coder used gif animated for character animated

but they gone to png because the gif stills have an antialiased pixel all
around the character which make it hummm less perfect than a png

that's only my opinion, more people will tell you more about it

regards
