I have asked this question before and tried the solutions but they have not worked for me. Would someone walk me through this please? I need to created and image with text and shapes in Adobe Photoshop CS2 and save the background as transparent. I need to then import the image, with transparent background preserved, into CoffeeCup Visual Site Designer for use on a web page. I will also be using the image for brochures, etc. in other programs. CoffeeCup VSD will only accept .gif or .jpeg files. Since .jepgs do not support transparency I will need to save as a .gif for CoffeeCup VSD although I wil be able to use other file types for use in alternate programs. Someone gave me the following solution when I asked this question before: "For keeping transparency in CS2 You need to choose it as BG type when creating a file itself and when saving - if You are saving it as GIF, You need to choose it in "pallete window" (First to pop after giving the name of file)." I cannot find what "BG type" is. Anyone know? I was also told to use the freeware "irfanview" so I downloaded that and it did not work either. I know that it's possile to save this image with a transparent background. I don't know what I am missing here. Could someone kindly walk me step by step through this?
