Alpha blending is when you make the whole bitmap at a certain alpha value (sort of like transparent is 0, opaque is 100, and 50 is somewhere in between)?
Sort of, except that the whole bitmap isn''t always the same alpha value. Normally the alpha byte for each pixel is used to determine that pixel''s transparency.
