creating small pictures on black background

[jallaballa]

Hi all
I am new to these forums, but hope anyone here can answer me the following:

When I create pictures (jpg and gif or png) for my webpage/forum (black background) all my pictures get small white "shades" around them.

I try to make a gif file without any background but as long as my background stays black the shade always appears.

Any ideas how I can remove this "shade"

Example:
page | http://abstest.teamstag.co.uk/bb3portal.php
icon | | http://abstest.teamstag.co.uk/bb3portal ... member.gif

as you can see the gif is fine here, but on my page it's not.

Did you use Save for Web ?
And did you use a transparrent background ?

And your sure that the white is not there before saving ?
Try copy/paste it into a bigger canvas with a black background to check it out.

Take a look your self mate It's all fine.

I guess what I am asking is how to create vector graphics?

I'm pretty sure there's a white background before you save that image ...
