If u r using pixly, then besides the different menus like file, edit, social, u will find a menu called colour, in that menu the first option is toggle transparency

I used toggle transparency,and yes,I manually removed the black background.
But I have no other option,because when I download the image,it comes as a black background.

technically, they attack the legs, hoping that the elephant would eventually bleed to death

Logical thing,good.It was also a heard thing that special people were called for controlling them,but I never saw it practically.
The biggest one I have seen in a flop film,was a person holding sword,jumping from his elly to enemy elly,putting the sword in the elly's trunk,and then rotating it.The elephant fell in two halves lol

Removing the accepted status, because it needs to be very clear how this elephant is different than the one in game.

This is an Asian elephant - in game is Carthaginian I think so African. Is the Mahout cheaper or is it used against different units than the existing elephant?

See the existing elephant acts like a strong and tough cavalry.
These Mahout(btw Mahout was the name of elephant's driver,correct would be Mahout Elephant),were those who were driven by expert riders.The riders controlled elephant,and carried a gadda,which is weapon from South Asia(mostly India and Persia),the gadda was almost similar to mace,Except they had golden colour,and one spike above.So the mahout elephants had a maceman's bonus to see
Edited:I don't think they need a special ability.

I think it could b cheaper, like 6 turns, and have more spell resist but mahout himself atks the enemies so only single target atk with no trample, the elephant is more like the shield for the mahout sitting above

This is more like a cavalry than the war elephant, war elephant is actually more of a siege unit with area damage
