Thank you for clearing that up, I did not figure out where you exactly got the pictures, but I noticed, that they were cut a little different (dragons have more space on top, pigs have more space below) so I figured - since that is how the placement of the pets differ ingame (dragons are further away, pigs usually overlap with the weapon) - that you got them somewhere and didn't cut them, so I retracted my question.

Transparency is actually done quickly since the pixel art has a very clean border (just load them into sumopaint.com and use the wand to remove the white background, 2 clicks, except with skeletons). It is mainly the cutting. I recently cut all the (originally animated) pictures of Crypt of the NecroDancer which was a pain to do manually. So I am keen on learning a more efficient way to do that.
