Windows 10: Transparent image showing over everything the log in screen, desktop, games and browsers.

So after an update every time I turn on my laptop a transparent image for example sometimes its my background or an app I last had open or a browser. It shows outlines of the image over my screen even when I'm on the loading screen and just opening the laptop. It goes on and off its not bad its just distracting when dark screens show and it puts a filter over my screen sometimes. I'm sure its probably a hardware problem but I don't really know.

Photoshop: Creating Transparent Images

• PNG supports Alpha Transparency, that is that the image can have different levels of alpha (or opacity) throughout.
• GIF supports transparency too, but any part of the image can only be either transparent or opaque. There is no gradual shift, no "Alpha" level to adjust. (And transparency eats into 1/256 of your available colors.)
• JPEG supports neither form of transparency.

Internet Explorer did not support transparency in PNGs until IE7, I believe that it would show black instead of the page behind the PNG image. It did, however, support PNGs. (Which are still a great way to achieve a non-lossy, high-color image. (even without transparency))

 

Really big transparent desktop icons that allow you to see the window slideshow pictures

I am currently using the built-in slideshow picture feature of windows to show a gallery of my images on my desktop, but as icons populate my desktop, they cover the slideshow images area. To get around this, I creates about 50 or so of the largest sized
desktop icons that show a transparent image. While this solved the problem of regular desktop icons covering all or most of my slideshow images, it does have some problems and doesn't look all that good: the transparent icons sometimes move and 'break' the
transparent region and these icons have names that detracts from the overall effect.

I would like to have the built-in windows slideshow feature better integrate with the desktop with a few new options that would make the slideshow images look better:

1. Create a transparent placeholder region, that works like a oversized desktop icon, and would force regular desktop icons to be place around it.
2. The transparent placeholder region can be sized so the amount of desktop area for regular desktop icons can be managed.
3. Slideshow images that are larger than the transparent placeholder region can either be clipped or not:
   1. Clipping causes slideshow images to only show the part of the image that fits within the transparent placeholder region. The image would be centered within the transparent placeholder region.
   2. Not clipped shows under the regular desktop icons that surround the transparent placeholder region, as they do now.
4. Slideshow images can be automatically resized to fit within the transparent placeholder region or allowed to show normally.
5. This suggestion would get around a few problems that using multiple normal icons that contain transparent images currently suffer:
   1. The transparent placeholder region is much easier to maintain than if the region is made up of lots of regular desktop icons,
   2. Added new icons never land within the area occupied by the transparent placeholder region,
   3. Regular icons have names and selection checkboxes that if used as a placeholders don't look good, and
   4. The transparent placeholder region never contain images, so can be rendered more efficiently than regular icons because an image file is never accessed.
