Hey so I'm trying to get some nice fluffy clouds I made in photoshop into GE, but for some reason it doesnt want to give me the nice blurred edges effect. Heres a picture. I'm saving the image as .tga and the background is a different color so it should be erased.

gE doesn't extract a color from the image when loading it in. It removes a single rgb value, in your case (0,0,0). Therefore, it won't have a nice smooth effect. To do that you'll have to use an alpha channel.

Save it as a .png with transparency behind it (What program do you use?)
