Super Noob Post! Help Please!

This has probably been asked a million times but it's all I need to know to be on my way! I've been importing and exporting sprites and other images. My only problem is when I export charsets from Vx into a folder the background turns green. When I edit the colors of the sprites and import the new ones, the background stays green. I feel like a doofus but, how do I get the background to be the double blue background like in-game. When I pick the sprite graphic to place it as a char., the background remains green.

P.S. I couldn't find this question! I am sorry if it's been asked a hundred times and I just missed it.....

Standard MS Paint can't handle transparency.  I recommend using this program to do any sprite editing.  The eraser in this program creates transparency, but if you're just doing edits then you shouldn't need to add transparency.  It works basically the same as MS Paint with a few extra features.

When you Import, You can select the transparency color.

When you Import, You can select the transparency color.

I thought this, too, but it didn't work if I used MS Paint.

Importing only works if the background is a solid color.
