Making Pictures for MODS

I'm not sure really what is being said here so this is what I did.

I'm trying to make a picture for a god (A Troll) and I took a friend's drawing. I scaned it in and fixed it a little with Graphic Converter. After this I Loaded it in Picture viewer. Than saved it as a tga file. Loaded it into Dominions mod folder tried loading it up and than all I see is black around the troll.

If anyone wants to try and fix this I'd be more than happy to email it to them and my friend is ok with it also. Please help the Trolls need a God.

If you see the black around the troll that means you did not make it truly black.
You must make sure every single black pixel is completely black (#000000 or 0,0,0), otherwise they won't be invisible.
The same goes for shadows, all shadow pixels (colored magenta) should be exactly #ff00ff or 255,0,255.
