To fix the opacity of the image, duplicate the image layer about 5 times or more and group all those layers plus the original layer. The result will be a fully opaque image.

The colouring is another issue. You could select the background with the Magic Wand Tool (W), invert the selection, fill a new layer with the required colour, and change the layer blending mode to Linear Burn.

  • Why 5 times wouldt it be better just to pull a levels on the alpha channel?

  • I suppose you could, either way gets the job done. You could also just do a Merge Visible on all the layers, rather than group.

  • Just in case the OP wants to attempt the levels adjustment method - it's simply a case of clicking Layers >Layer Mask From Transparency, then in the Channels Panel, select the layer mask. And click Image > Adjustments > Levels and pull the right most slider into the middle. Example here: imgur.com/oaI3ozW
