importing transparent images

Bug description
i cant guarantee this is actually a bug, since it may just be my incompetence... but i do not know how to import a transparent image. i looked online to see if anyone had said anything about this and came up empty, so im going to ask here in case it is a bug.
the image i keep trying to upload into the game is a png with a transparent background, but when i do so & it loads in my inventory, its all the same except it has a black background instead.
there is a minecraft server that streamers used to play on called QSMP that used this camera mod specifically, and they had many transparent images in their game (shown below)
in these, you can see the wall and even the sky behind the images. i am sure this is possible, but im not sure how they did it. i have also tried to upload transparent images of FNAF characters once before in the same world. here is the image i used for foxy
and those images in game
after importing the png of the sign for a build i made, it showed up in my inventory like so (i also tried uploading it as a "file" and as a jpg, the jpg appearing with a white background)
here is the image i was trying to put in initially. it is a custom sign i drew and saved from the procreate app if that helps at all.
again, i may just be missing something or using the wrong file, but the curseforge mod description said nothing about transparent images, and everything about transparent images coming up with a black background online refers to photoshop... i know its possible but i just dont know why its not working for me. i really want this to work so me and my friends can add transparent images like this across the server. thank you.
Minecraft version
1.20.1
Mod version
1.20.1-1.0.12
Mod loader and version
Forge 47.3.0
Steps to reproduce
- i enter the game and hold a camera in my inventory
- i shift and right click while holding the camera to get a pop up with arrows to select a filter, and below that, to upload an image
- i click the button "upload" and my files tab opens up showing all my images
- i select the image "laserballs.png" , a transparent image in my files
(this is the images properties)
- the image loads into my inventory like so
- i place an image frame down on my build and place the image in the frame
Expected behavior
i expected the image to load in with no background at all, as it appears in my files.
