sprites
Sprites hide the black color automatically. You can change it by using the command set sprite spritenr, backsave, transparency

images
To enable transparency, simply add a "1" at the end of paste image (eg. paste image 1, 0, 0, 1)

objects
To hide an object's black color (when textured), we use the command set object objnr, wire, transparent, cull. Change the parameter transparent to 0 to hide all black colors.

It's the programmer's life:
Have a problem, solve the problem, and have a new problem to solve.

Remember that locking the object will make "position object" relative to the camera.

This means that the X will position the object left/right, the Y position will move the object up/down on the screen and the Z position will move towards/further off the camera.
a X position of 0 and an Y position of 0 will be the center of the screen.

Make sure the X and Y values are not too big, and the Z value is bigger than the minimum camera range.
