1, It's a render, not a screenshot from CMX viewer, would be nice if we could get that from CMX viewer though, but no, not a shot from there but a render.
2, Its an image with transparent background. E.g. when you open PS or your graphics program, then you can start with either a color as a background, or you can start with a transparent background, if you start with the latter and save your work as png for instance, it will have a transparent - see through - background. Normally, that would be handy here, because all tonix would need to do is render the car without any background whatsoever, so when he posts it here it blends together with the forum colors nicely, since the image itself has no background, it is just the car and nothing around it. However as he explained, he uses a different method because of IE issues.

A PNG file is a file which supports transparent background (invisible). If you put a PNG file on the internet with a transparent background, the colour of the webpage's background will show in those areas.
Best I can explain it, I'm horrible at explaining things. lol

Thanks for the comments. But I'd like to say it once again that i'm not the original author of this skin, i just re-made them in high resolution for S2. Anyway, i'm making new Muroc racing helmets. I've made basic design and now i'll try to personify it for each member. Here is on example (teammates nickname is NoGhost, hence the ghost  :  - tonix |

WOW! That is simply masterful!
Are those renders, or are you using a reflection mod in the viewer? (Just the helmet)

Ah, I was right! That does look quite nice... I never liked the reflection mod in game, but in static screens it usually looks pretty nice, as you proved with those screens. Maybe I'll download it again and install it into my viewer... |
