PureBasic Logo as a high quality PNG image with alpha mask

Why? Because I'd like to use the PureBasic logo in the about window of the program, in the HTML documentation of the program and possibly on the website as well to help promote PureBasic.
A larger PNG image with alpha mask is preferred and can easily be resized in applications that support PNG with alpha masking to fit the intended use.
(and that way there is no need to originally provide multiple sizes etc.)

As long as PB doesn't support the alpha mask, you can forget this idea!
The only chance to get it working is with Sprites or
DrawAlphaImage().

PB is supporting alpha channel since 4.00, at least in sprites... If not, I wouldn't have done Purebreaker 3

djes, I said this already.
But transparency is not supported in ImageGadget() for example. He wants to show the transparent logo in an "About-Window", which I conclude from, that he's using GUI interfaces with... ImageGadget()'s!
(Alternatively, he must use DrawAlphaImage() in combination with WindowOutput().)

Sorry I've read a bit too fast.

I am sorry FLuid Byte... your leprechuan image does not have a transparent layer and the little people are a wee bit peeved!!!

At least Fluid Byte understood what I meant.
AND51, djes, you two are way off topic. :roll:
I'm talking about the PureBasic logo, like you see at top left of this forum
or the website or the IDE about window.
But that one does not lend itself so well for re-use, and it's only a gif (256 colors) and no alpha masking, and too low resolution for further resizing.
PS! Fluid Byte thanks for the Z, but not really what I had in mind

I can recreate that logo in PS for you if you want. It has a really simple layout. I could send you a 32bit png afterwards.

That would be great, but I'm sure others would love that as well so it should be downloadable from somewhere. You might have a problem with those cogwheels and 01's though. (Hint, Hey Fred how about a page on the website with logo downloads?
