Trying to create a lens flare for sun and street lights,etc.

Ive created a lens flare texture in photoshop with the background black in the texture. Obviously i dont want to show the black background and only the bright lensflare

BUT... because the texture graphic contains very bright white and slowly dissolves into black around flares edges - its not as easy as setting the object not to show BLACK (textures black background)

HOW do I set the object so it doenst show black BUT NOT ABRUBTLY (similar to the smoke decals in tank demo - shipped with darkbasic - but smoke texture uses white background and ghost on with dark flag set)

Thanks
