I have been looking at quite a few sites, and how to 'pad' out an image so the original image isn't a power of 2 but when it gets loaded into the program to become a texture it is padded out (with what i seem to be reading) with black pixels.

Should be transparent pixels. If allocating memory for a pad space use calloc not malloc for obvious reasons...

Look, there really isn't a way around this. That's just one of the things you need to deal with and it's difficult to "force" everything into the one little box or method. If your textures are different, then they need to be handled differently.
I'd definitely re-look at your drawing code and allow for some flexibility for the ST co-ordinates. Even if they were just in an array matching an array of the GL texture indexes, that would be enough.
