The background HAS to be actual black. Dominion interprets the black as transparent. IIRC correctly, transparency also works. However, I had some problems with that as well. It seems there are few different ways to encode TGA pictures, and Dominions only supports the default one, or something along those lines.

Glad to help!

Where is that interesting guide? I have started a mod based on Age Of Wonders, and the graphic is not my best skills . If I can use the graphics of the game, it can be a very good news.

I'm not sure where or when I originally posted it. From the dates, it seems that it was in the beginning of 2005. I found the zip I probably posted, so I'll attach it here.

It's not a simple process, and the guide isn't that good either, but it should get the job done.

Hm, would it be possible to mod in different map-screen temple graphics for different empires? I always thought it would be cool if Mictlan's temples looked more like they actually do.
