Looks like a useful patch. I'll incorporate it.

Um, nope, it's a useful patch, but apparently grabbing the icon as a bitmap doesn't grab the background transparency with it. Blah. I'll work on it.

Updated: I didn't add the transparency. Oops.

Updated again: There's something odd about wxPython's transparency-handling when it's a bitmap, black pixels get marked transparent too. I'd like to resolve this problem before I put out a release with this change, otherwise the icons can look weird.

Hello,

well it seems that the people who port wxpython to the mac have fixed the bug in the C++ framework/library or whatever it is that caused the problem. So it is possible that things are gonna be ok. But I reckon it's going to take a while until this fix gets incorporated into the release on the website of wxpython.org.

hi i have been reading this post on how to fix bit tornado and i made it to this part and this is what i get

if anyone can help me with this i would really be thankful i have been trying to get bit tornado gui to work on slackware for about 3 weeks now and it just hasnt happened yet

I'm getting this error message everytime I try to run BitTornado. I'm running Windows XP Pro SP2. Never had this problem when I was on Windows 2000 SP4.

hell-o
I changed from woody to sarge (debian and finally the xserver works) and istalled bittornado(gui)

and it gave same wit bittorrent(-gui) too, but as root it works perfectly with both.
And even with the btdownloadcurses command it gives the same stuff. The non gui version works fine without needed to login as root.

And..........help?
