So heres the thing:

I have a png file with a transparent background and another file witch I want it to go on Without actualyy saving it. so later i can grab the image to put on the screen with the other one on top without changing any of the acutal files. I have done this but the transparent background is just comng out white when i paste it on top. How do i fix this?

How exactly are you doing it,
load 1st image to bitmap, pasting 2nd image to same bitmap, using get image to get the final image?

If you are using paste image then you need to use the transparancy flag,
paste image 1,0,0,1

Also note that bitmaps don't have any transparancy(alpha) info, Get image uses black or whatever colour is specified with SET COLOR KEY.

Change the the .png to .bmp
That should do it
set image color key red, green, blue (the color you don't want to display)
"set sprite" command to set the transparenty settings (I don't know the parameters by heart, but look in the help menu!)
