Reasons why white marine is on a white background:
A. My freeware gif animator only supports MS paint, and MS paint doesn't support transparentcy, thus making things transparent is usually more work than it's worth.
B. Lol's blatent rippoff theory...
C. Some of my other animations would look really screwed up with transparency, thus I just avoid it on all of them for continuity
D. BTW, I am just to lazy to color him, otherwize his sash and helmet would probably be green (too lazy and coloring takes more time than its worth in MS paint, oh and it sucks up a bunch of space including more colors in gifs too, most of my gifs only have four simple colors for that reason)
