( for example ) if you have a circle and a square in the same tga file thats 256x256, how does the code know to use the square and not the circle? I've looked at several tga files, but it contains nothing that signifies what items are what. i could keep all the files seperate but i was just curious if anyone could explain to me how thats posible. I'd like to know for future reference. Thanks.
