Post Any ideas why my weapon image gets distorted on facing left?
Here's whats happening:

LEFT: Image
RIGHT: Image

Here's my .ini http://pastebin.com/1xSc5Crx

And here's my images (and .ini): http://www.mediafire.com/?z3n50qaf7jjerc0

Could anyone take a look at this? Is it an issue with the image or the .ini? Thanks guys!

EDIT: Upon looking at the image, it seems like the pink isn't counted as a transparent color. Did I mess something up with alpha channel? Could this be what's wrong?

So does that mean I'm using the wrong "pink"?
I'm using #ff00ff right now. What should it be?

The pink is fine, the whole thing must be in the correct palette. I think your blues and greys are slightly off, which is probably why it's getting upset.

What your eye sees is different from what the computer reads, your image needs to be encoded in palette, which is a special type of image encoding (compared to 24 bit unpalleted or whatever you may like), not be color-perfect.
Follow this tutorial, you'll be fine.
