[SDL] Sorry to bother you

Hey,

Does colorkeying definitely work with SDL_SRCALPHA?

Hello. I have a very stupid problem. I have tried for several days to get it working, but i can't seem to get it right.
I am actually trying to do the simple thing to make a empty surface, and then draw another image into it. My code is the following (c++):

//code for drawing from one surface to another:

void apply_surface( float x, float y, SDL_Surface* source, SDL_Surface* destination, SDL_Rect* clip = NULL )
	{
		//Holds offsets
		SDL_Rect offset;
	    
		//Get offsets
		offset.x = x;
		offset.y = y;
		
		   
		//Blit
		SDL_BlitSurface( source, clip, destination, &offset );
	}

//code for loading an image from memory:
SDL_Surface *load_image( string filename ) 
	{
		//The image that's loaded
		SDL_Surface* loadedImage = NULL;
	    
		//The optimized surface that will be used
		SDL_Surface* optimizedImage = NULL;
	    
		//Load the image
		loadedImage = IMG_Load( filename.c_str() );
	    
		//If the image loaded
		if( loadedImage != NULL )			
		{
		  SDL_SetColorKey( loadedImage, SDL_SRCCOLORKEY, SDL_MapRGB( loadedImage->format, 255, 0, 255 ) );
			//Create an optimized surface
			optimizedImage = SDL_DisplayFormatAlpha( loadedImage );
	        
			//Free the old surface
			SDL_FreeSurface( loadedImage );
	        
	       
	        
		}
		//Return the optimized surface
		return optimizedImage;
	}

//the code for making the empty surface(tempframe) and applying the appropriate sprite from the sprite sheet
// loaded from memory:
//create an empty surface
SDL_Surface* tempframe = SDL_CreateRGBSurface( SDL_SWSURFACE|SDL_SRCALPHA,
                                               genseframes[frame1].w,
                                              genseframes[frame1].h,
                                               32,
                                               gense->format->Rmask,
                                            gense->format->Gmask,
                                gense->format->Bmask,
                             gense->format->Amask);
//fill it with the colorkey color       
SDL_FillRect(tempframe, NULL,SDL_MapRGB(tempframe->format, 255, 0, 255));



//assaign the colorkey                                
SDL_SetColorKey(tempframe, SDL_SRCCOLORKEY , SDL_MapRGB(tempframe->format, 255, 0, 255))   ;
//draw the current frame from the gense spritesheet  
apply_surface(0,0,gense,tempframe,&genseframes[frame1]);

/////////////////////////////
the result is the following (look at the sprite on the left with the pink rectangle around it, it is supposed to be completely transparent)
