Adding Eric's Radar Gauge

[foo_fighter]

Hi Guys!

I'm trfacing problems concerning an addition I'm making to Mr. Ito's F-102.
As U can see in the pic above there is a huge place where a radar should - so I've decided to add Eric's Radar in such place.
My problem is:

1. The back of the gauge s black and is ugly cos the bitmapped pic seens to be so unreal
2. I've tried to make the gauge transparent but no sucess at all.
3. I'm using FS Panel Studio

So, I ask U if some1 can teach how to make it transparent well fitted (or close to be fitted) and more "real"

Plz, see the pic added:



thanx in advance

cya!

So the area that you're trying to add the gauge is not black, while the background is?  Why not just paint the background close to black?  Something like 50,50,50 ought to do it.
