    I used PS and Gimp 2 to make a vine type plant.

    I have a transparent back ground. But it is not transparent.
    I am using unity 3d 5.6

    See photo below.

    If you look close you can see the back ground
    Is their anything I can do about it.
    Thank you

    In PhotoShop and Gimp, did you save them as png?

    Have you tried to play around with your texture import settings?
    Maybe this link might be a good start: https://answers.unity.com/questions/407295/png-transparency.html

    To get to the gist of it:
    * try format "truecolor" instead of some compressed format
    * try to turn off "generate mipmaps"
    * check "Alpha is transparency"
    ...

    That is caused by a material setting, try setting Rendering Mode to Fade instead of Transparent.
