GSD posted a tut on the old forums, for player to player trading. Very nice system, though you can accept the intial trade request for the other player, but that's the only problem.

GIF would be better. I know if you save the image transparent, it will still be transparent if you place it in an image control, but that's about it. =/

You can use AlphaBlend but I'm praticly sure you can't use transparency about only one color, like... You have a tile w/ the background black and a waterfall. If you use the AlphaBlend it will make the hole tile semi-transparent but the black too... Im not sure if you can do both w/ DX7[actualy if you blit pixel by pixel it will work but fps will go DOWN(alot)]

Do something more practical than attacking them and it opening the shop. Have it to where you hit a different key, like T or something, or click the npc, and check the range, of the player from the npc, that way, they can't open the shop from the other side of the map.
