Got a solution for that, i think. When you're done with first-time editing of the sprites, make sure you always remove the background layer, not any other layer, that's how you remove the white outline :)

Any chance you could continue in the same fashion with the Sidus Dim ships? Trylobot seems to be less active than before. I guess it's RL problems :)

sprog , its not that i dont think your capable
 ,but copying trylobots style is going to be quiet hard.
if you zoom in to his sprites, you can see that there is soo much detail in them.
his colouring and lighting is amazing.

i wish you good luck ,but i fear you might not succeed in completly make them as good as he does it.
to give you a hint (if you dont allready know it)

the lights he uses can easily be made with paint.net by placing the colour of your choice on a transparant area.
you select a 3x3 area around it and stretch it to the size of your liking.
now copy it and paste it in another layer above the point you want the light to be.
compress the two layers together and you got the light fixed :)

remember if you have any questions just ask. :)
(if you have any ;))
