Photoshop experts??
Has anyone out there got the knowledge as to how to turn the background for my signature transparent. I want it so that the white dissappears and the
background colour of the webpage becomes the background of Shrek.
(using photoshop or paint?)
Any help muchly appreciated !!
Cheers
Joel

You need to delete the background so it is a clear layer.
Preserve transparency and save as a gif. However, to avoid jaggy edges you need to set a colour for matting. for general use use a light grey. But on
dark backgrounds it will have a light halo around it. You really need to know what colour background it is going on to matte it properly.
