That png's not transparent, you can see the edge. Open up photoshop or paint.net. Select a new layer, draw your shape, and opacitate it so that it's as transparent as you want it to be. Drag other layers onto it if you like, like the black gloss shape in the image above. Cut the image to the size you want and save as a .png. Ta-da-transparent png. If it's only the shape above, and if you want to post a mock of how transparent you want it against a background, I'll do it for you.

Did you use a colord background?

And could you send me the file so I can help you further?

[roadman]

I didnt use a colord background.

I opend it up in photoshop set the sttings to transparent ( the white and grey things you see then )

Made it transparent and saved it.
