Now you should have your pic in Alpha Channel too. Now you simply paint everything hat will be transparent - Black, and the visible parts - White. Ok?
Note that's only the silhouet that needs be painted, so don't mind painting over any texture. If you get what I mean, I'm not a good explainer...
Well good luck and feel free to ask questions.

Ok I did what I did and then I tried again doing what you said, which is the same as me except I made the part I want transparent BLACK like you said. It made it black in WoW, so no dice.
Let me go through what I do. Tell me if I do anything wrong.
Open PS. I make the texture with a part I want transparent. I made the texture on a transparent background in RGD format. I select all, copy and paste in a NEW transparent document. I then make new channel, alpha channel. I turn off the RGB channel so it's JUST Alpha. I save it, put in the custom textures thing as a TGA with alpha channel, then change to LUE to recognize it.
Did I do anything wrong?
Thanks for the help, by the way.
