Hello, DrJones.
I understand very little English. And maybe I did not understand the question ...
Circular disk, and you are required not only the texture of the circle, but the whole square. A square should be transparent?
Try it. Create a separate "Layer". Fill it with black. And then make it transparent to the minimum. Then combine it with a round disc. Visually, the background will be transparent and the human eye will not perceive it on the screen. A "Computer" will perceive it as a "Texture."
I could be wrong. But try.:salute:

arrgh :oops: maybe i got it....the image has to be a square like 500 dpi x 500 dpi and not like 500 dpi * 250 dpi....so i have to change the resolution of the images from the attackdisk...

The quarter is falling pennywise...

That's correct :up:

another suggestion: it is always better making your textures powers of 2 in size: 128x128, 256x256, 512x512, etc ;)
