Transparency in TARGA (.TGA) files

You can not make a TARGA file transparent. On the first time, when I was attempting to make it transparent, it didn't work cause I saved it as 16-bit. It took me a while to find the problem. I have seen that more people don't know how to create transparent loginboxes (or anything else), so I made this video.

Some notes:
- You do not need to make remove the part you don't want. Only the black part of the Alpha Channel will make it transparent.
- Selecting multiple places can be done using the <SHIFT>-key
- It is important to save as 24-bit or higher
- If you already had an Alpha Channel, remove it and (re-)follow the tutorial.
- Pause at any time if I go too fast
- Recommended to watch 720p at YouTube

Hizza! You're amazing. <3

(tried it only on the exit button, it's tricky just to get the lettering w/ black out glow)

Well, if you know the code, then tell us instead of complaining. Your negative comment is useless if you don't help.

You can change "The script" to .PNG easily.
Negative comments keep this section alive, so..

I don't bother about the critic, I bother about not including the code/solution. He could've share the code including his critic at once.

But you are right, why not bumping? It's free...

there're some ways :

1st : use photoshop 7.0 like me
2nd : save as *.png and then rename it >>>> *.tga
3rd : change the script to *.png
