CurlyCorry Posted January 17, 2008 Posted January 17, 2008 :? I was just reading the answer to my question on this forum, had to register to make a comment, now i can't find the original post that i was on so here i am submitting my comment under my own topic. SO... i want to change the background on an image to transparent and when i did what was instructed about using the magic wand, selecting just the background, cutting, saving image and poof, supposed to be a transparent background. Well, that didn't work. I tried it with several different levels of "tolerance" as suggested, still get the exact same image when I save it. I go into my document, paste the new image with the supposed transparent background and the image looks absolutely no different than when i started... still white background. Any suggestions as to what I'm doing wrong? Quote
david.atwell Posted January 17, 2008 Posted January 17, 2008 What file format are you saving in? Only .GIF and .PNG file formats support transparency.

CurlyCorry Posted January 17, 2008 Author Posted January 17, 2008 aaaah... well there would be my problem. THANK YOU!!! Let me go try that... much appreciated. Quote
david.atwell Posted January 17, 2008 Posted January 17, 2008 Glad to help! :-) Also, keep in mind that browsers like IE6 do weird stuff with .PNG transparency. It doesn't support partial transparency, so it'll look odd. Quote The Doctor: There was a goblin, or a trickster, or a warrior...
