[Help! making backgrounds transparent.]

Thanks for the reply!

I used this tutorial to do the job but its not really transparent. What was the background comes out white. If I use the photo on color, It has this big white square behind the photo. Maybe what I need to do is Crop out the background? I can't figure out how to crop out the background either.

Thanks, Jeff

[Help! making backgrounds transparent.]

:? I tried to follow some instructions in tutorials but am having trouble. I can erase the background in a pic with the magic wand but it stays either white or black. I can't seem to get it transparent ? My Epson CD print software can't see GIF files? I am new to this and don't understand the layers thing?
