Got a question I hope someone can help me with. Whenever I make a graphic with Photoshop that is not some kind of rectangle, how can I save that sucker without a white background showing up? I know that there has to be someway to save it with a transparent background so that just the image shows. Tried adobe photoshop help, but kinda got lost. Thanks for any help!

im using photoshop 6 but i think its still the same...on ur tools bar look for the eraser button then right click on it(i use the tool bar coz i dont know the shortcut yet), you may choose between the background eraser tool and the magic eraser tool; both makes the background transparent....the only difference is that when u use background eraser tool - you erase the background manually in magic eraser tool - one click erases the whole background.

Try switching to ImageReady mode, it handles transparent backgrounds better. And make sure you save it as either a GIF or PNG ... JPGs can't have transparent backgrounds

Hey! It works! Thanks Woogy and Laggy. By the way, Woogy, it is the same in Photoshop 7 and I tried it with a jpg after reading your last post. Laggy's right, it showed up with the white background but the gif had the transparent background. Thanks again, you guys were great!
