Hi Robert and Stephan,

I can see the problem using osgviewer.
The images I use are available from:
http://cvs.flightgear.org/viewvc/data/Textures/Sky/


Here I list some images that show the problems:

[Black Edges instead of transparency]

[CGBitmapContextCreate got error]

Stephan, 
I tried kCGImageAlphaFirst as you said, but it only showed the following errors 
on loading RGBA images (e.g. cl_cumulus.png):
<Error>: CGBitmapContextCreate: unsupported parameter combination: 8 integer 
bits/component; 32 bits/pixel; 3-component colorspace; kCGImageAlphaFirst; 4096 
bytes/row.
<Error>: CGContextDrawImage: invalid context

Could you make some tests with these images on your end too?

Best,
Tat
