TGA and transparent backgrounds

Neither. I have cracked it myself with a few prompts from you guys.

It would seem that i did everything right except saving the image with the Alpha channel in it.

Anyway here is the result.

The leading is not small enough for the final result, but at least i know how to do it now.

I created the alpha channel mask with psp7, but re-saved the image after opening it with adobe photoshop.
When using the "save as" option in adobe you are given the option to tick an alpha channel box which in psp you are not.
This was the difference that made the whole thing work.

Thanks for all the responses.
