I noticed that my PNG image files aren't displaying with transparency. Is there a way to fix that?


Did you try pygame.Surface.convert_alpha() after loading the image? 

I did:

foo = pygame.image.load( filename ).convert()

Using a GIF, it works fine, but I'd rather use PNG. With those, I still get an opaque background even though I did the same Photoshop trick of selecting and "deleting" the background.

Oh -- check out kschnee.xepher.net/pics/iso060601.png to see what I'm doing with this.
