i can't remember offhand if there's a way to it other than this:

basically, you have to make all the parts you want opaque white, and all the parts you want transparent black. the way i've been doing it is carefully using the Lasso tool to select my areas that i want white, then using the Paint Bucket to fill it in with white.

if you've got the vinyl parts on layers with alpha channels, you could use the Brightness/Contrast settings and make them white. then add a black background and you're good to go.

Grrh, I'm getting quite ticked off. My Photoshop (CS2) keeps crashing, all though I save the vinyls as palette ARGB (256 colors + alpha) as here were told. Someone could save them for me or tell me what is the problem? Game is Need for Speed Most wanted.

Hmm, this IS hard. :/ These Print screens, what choices from those? I just want to make it clear, so I do not have to ask again.

I normally leave the Indexed Color at exact. You should save it as palette RGB/ARGB. It shouldn't matter because the vinyls uses a mask to determing trasnparency.

Now I'm really ticked off. That game keeps throwing me out, all though I have everything correct in the graphs. Someone to fix?

EDIT: Edited to better from text.

Keep your language clean please 'Finalmaster2'. Anger is no excuse for breaking the site rules.

Ok, I fixed the text to better state. If someone wants to fix my vinyl, then go ahead and fix it. Tell me through private message, if you have fixed it and send it to me.
