I created the texture and put it tranparent, in hammer it apeears the "T" of transparent apeears but it has a "!" on the side it looks like an error.

This may help you get an idea.

Are you using Photoshop? You will need to make an alpha channel. Anything that's white on the alpha channel will appear in-game, anything black will be see-through/transparent.

See this tutorial and imagine the "TEXT" is your foliage image - http://sprays.hlgaming.com/tutorials-transparency.php
