transparent image in UINavigationBar

i have made a simple design in photoshop when i tried to put it in Xcode i had some problems with NavigationBar

i used this code to change the UINavigationBar background image (a PNG transparent image):

UINavigationBar *navBar = [[self navigationController]navigationBar];
[navBar setBackgroundImage[UIImageimageNamed:@"navBar2.png"]forBarMetrics:UIBarMetricsDefault]

everything works fine but the problem is that the image appears in the navigationBar without transparency.

please someone help me to fix the transparency issue i search everywhere without any satisfied answer
NB! Im using IOS 5

[self.navigationBar setBackgroundImage:[UIImage new] forBarMetrics:UIBarMetricsDefault];
[self.navigationBar setShadowImage:[UIImage new]];
[self.navigationBar setTranslucent:YES];

And make sure you set up tint color to default.

What you can do is set the background color of the view of the navigationController the same as the backgrouond color of the main view.

//Set your view's background color    
[self.view setBackgroundColor:[UIColor colorWithPatternImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"view_background"]]];

//Set your custom image for the navigationController
[self.navigationController.navigationBar setBackgroundImage:[UIImage imageNamed: @"navigation_bar_image"] forBarMetrics:UIBarMetricsDefault];

//And then set the background color of the navigationController the same as the one of the view
[self.navigationController.view setBackgroundColor:[UIColor colorWithPatternImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"view_background"]]];

You might try setting the navigation bar to translucent.

[navBar setTranslucent: YES];

Do you have it in your Storyboard? Try change the style of your navigation bar into black translucent.
