Using Paintshop pro.
I am using my recoverd Kairi edits for this here.

If needed, the first thing we want to do is reduce the amount of colors in this image here. I this case, the first image is saved in 1million colors.
In paintshop pro click Colors > Decrease color depth > 256 colors and your pal chart should look something like this.

Look at the color chart to the left on both images above. You see that they are different right?
Now for he image thats reduced in colors, what we need to do is get the bg color of your image, in this case, mines is pink, to be the first color in the pal chart starting from the top left which is called the index color. That way when applying the image into the sff file or creating one, the pink bg in the image as the index color will be the transparent color.
This is how you do that.
the first color in my pal chart is black, and my second color from the right is the pink bg color, we need to switch those two colors some how. To do the press hot keys shift+p to open the pal customization chart.
you should see something like this,

Double click on the first color and you should get this window,

*Note*
before you change any colors, either with note pad or a piece of paper, right down the old color number values so when changing or repositioning certain colors on a pal chart of any image, you will have that correct value and for back up purposes in case you need to revert the image. Just a safety precaution.
Ok proceed with the color changes, change the black to the pink value and the pink value to the previous first color value and save.
Your image will look something like this.

Ok before you all go saying, SYN? WTF HAPPENED TO MY IMAGE?!! Don't worry, this is normal. now that you image is like this, click colors > save palette and name it "temp.pal"
Ok now that is done, click edit > undo palette edit or revert palette. it says either or, anyway, when you do that then you image will return to normal with the colors in the right place but the chart will be like the sirst time before you made he changes. Don't Worry, thats what we want.
Now with your image restored to normal, all you have to do now is click color > load palette, and find the temp.pal you created and select it.
and there it is,

You colors are restored and that pal chart is now mugen compadible with the first color being transparent.

This is about making the color charts compadible with mugen.
