gfx/scope.png is supposed to be a png file but it has an alpha channel.
you probably edited it with a cheap program like paint which destroyed the alpha channel and therefore removed all transparency.

download cs2d as zip archive at www.cs2d.com and extract the original gfx/scope.png from that archive and replace your existing one.

Tip: Always backup any sprites/sounds/practically anything before you edit them, when all things go wrong you atleast got the original files.

Here some small additional information: "Paint.NET" and "GIMP (2)" as most people know it's freeware.
But if you don't know much about adding layers and alpha channels and want user friendly you better go for "Paint.NET".
If you want more filters and a more advanced photoshop program you should choose "GIMP 2"
Even freeware photoshops are pretty basic actually, a serious designed photoediting/sharing software has more functions.

Edit: Did you know that both Paint.NET and GIMP has plug-in support? You can add new filters and tools with add-ons available on the official site and some fansites.

I once made an awesome looking scope in gimp, I still use it.
After I merged it with another scope image to give it a bit of a lens effect and put a few other adaptations it didnt save properly. Instead of saving it with transparancy it saved with a white background, making it almost non-translucent and it looked like a cloud xD.
Am I using a wrong setting or something? Because when I open it in GIMP it looks fine...
