If you choose color to alpha it does crazy thing to the image. I fixed the image but when i put it on imgur it converts it to a jpg.

mlsmith, you can set color to alpha in gimp.
color > color to alpha
choose the color you whish to declare transparent
black in this case
Is this what you need?

It still leaves the glow but it's fairly close to what I was after. I was considering trying to create an SVG in Inkscape which might allow more flexibility and sharpness for future graphics work. Thanks for reminding me about that function in Gimp! I don't know why I always try to use the color tool.

imgur was being stupid. I also have a svg

Very nice, sysdrum. That's pretty darn close to what I was after.

How much do you need it adjusted? Do you need it more transparent? I did most of the removal by hand.
