Well, not all graphics are supposed to have some transparency. The sky as an example. The problem I encounter is that GE wants to put transparency by any means. Like here, in my beautiful sky. There are transparency holes.

See the black stain in the upper left part? That's a transparency hole. How can I avoid these?

If you you use 32bit images, the transparency information you come from the image transparent channel, not from first pixel.
