You didn't mention what graphics library you're using so I'm going to give a general answer. Blit a copy of the background (using the same size/position of the RECT of the transparent sprite) in it's place.

Oh and using really annoying capitilization on a "sorry if this is hard to read" apology nullifies the apology.

i did like that before

but if i do it like this its erase all at this position

mot only the picture i want

I'm sorry but I'm having a real hard time understanding what you're getting at. I understand that english isn't your first language so I'm going to try to help fill in some of the blanks for you. I'll tell you what I'm assuming and you tell me where I'm right or wrong then I'll be able to better explain it to you.

Here's what I gather from what you've typed so far:

You have a background image.
You have a transparent sprite.
When your sprite moves you want to redraw the part of the background where the sprite moved FROM.

Is this correct?

yeah
something like this

but it can be not only a background
it can be another transparent spirite
or another picture

Try using an additional offscreen surface (this will work with any graphics library). Blit everything to this backbuffer, the background, sprites, etc.. Blit the backbuffer to the main surface. When something changes, blit only the part of the backbuffer that is affected by the change to update the main surface (ie: dirty rectangles).
