I see. I did it with photoshop. I'll try out with paint.net.
EDIT: That worked! Thank you so much to the both of you. I consider my problem solved.
Upon further research I realized it's actually just the first 6 pixels around the edges that needs to be transparent. Makes sense since the images are 76 pixels yeah? It's only a theory but my guess is that icons were supposed to be 70x70 pixes, with 6 additional to make the borders.
I imported a custom dds picture that appears just fine in the interface.
However when I try to make it the icon of an active ability the borders dont show. I tried to use a different icon for the same ability and the borders show clearly. It appears that my custom icon refuses to have borders. I tried to change the path and the name to be similar to other active ability icons but it doesn't change the outcome. So how can I make my custom icon have showing borders for the ability?

Didn't work for me. The transparency appears bright white and there are no borders :/
The image remains at 76x76.

Thank you very much for looking into this!
