      Wondering if there is anyway to remove or edit the "mask" (gameplay) portion of an overlay. I have a bunch I got but the gameplay portion of the screen is very white.
      Thanks for any help

        @kmetz7547 Overlay images are PNG files: these can be edited with any image editing software (GIMP, PS, PSE etc). The "game area" must be set to transparent "color" (alpha channel). If you get that in white it means there's something wrong with your overlay image.
        Note: JPG format does not support transparency so it can't be used.
