Need spray help

I'm trying to save an image with transparency. How would i save it so parts of it would be transparent?

Well you can save it as tga or vtf.

To make a transparency for TF2 you need to create an alpha channel. Create a new channel in the channel tab (near layers) and it should be named Alpha 1. In Alpha, black is 100% transparent, and white is 0% transparent. It's completely grayscale, so when you save it, just make sure you save with alpha layers as a .vtf and you're set.

ya it work's best to select the area of the image that should be tranparent than make the alpha channel and fill the selection with white on the alpha channel

Yeah same. I just set the background to transparent/none and use a 30% eraser until I get the desired effect. Then just save it as a .png file
