Griff Cobra Mk1 problem: Adding decals... (Solved)

I opened the texture in GIMP, the way I did to make it blue, but this time added a decal, but whenever I change the texture to add the image of a Cobra, whether it's black, white, or blue, I get this:
How can I get rid of the black? I tried adding Smivs' grey texture, and got this:
Does this problem have something to do with transparency? My best theory is that there might be two textures on a Griff ship, a basic and a more detailed one. By adding a decal, I might be interfering in some way, hence the black in some places.

Nope. It's just the way the shader is working.
If it's one of Griffs shaders take a look in the shipdata. Some of his shaders are using uniform bindings to pass the color.

Shaders aren't supported on my machine, so I doubt that's the problem.
I've tried adding decals that are partly transparent, to no avail.

you have to "colours > components > decompose" to RGBA, remove the A channel, then do "colours > components > compose" select RGB option. Then add the decals
