I am trying to use images with transparencies ( I only want the shape of the object not the rectangle). These images have the png format and I am not able to open them (I'm using a PC) and in jpg format I loose all tranparencies. I need that kind of image with the shape of the object for an installation for kids.

I would like to know how to import png images with transparencies. I want to import a guitar image with the shape of a guitar (not a rectangle). Each time I try to import the image is says that I'll loose all the transparencies and I allways got the "rectamgle guitar". Does anyone is able to help me please?

Thanks. I have a problem opening the png format (in pure data window it says invalid listing). For jpg files I do not have transparencies.
