I have tried this over and over, so maybe someone here can help.
See the MOH (Medal of Honor) to the left? And the giant white square around it? Is there a way to make it so that only the cross shows, it is transperent in PSP. So I don't know... Embarrassed

Hi Jesster. You would have to save it in GIF format. There are different options for doing the transparency. I have done it PSP7 but forget how. I'll have a play later.

From what I can recall of PSP, in the *.psp format, the background can be transparent, but when it is converted to a *.jpg image the background goes white.

Try this. It needs a little tidying up.

Arg, I still don't know how you did it, I copied yours, and... not good. Here...

This is all that happens when I copy and paste, and it actually shows yellow on the forums. I you could tell me, prob cause I can't just copy, I'd be very happy! Tongue

Right-click on my image & select the Save Picture As option. Save it to your HD. It should be in GIF format. Open it in PSP. To save it after editing use the File/Save As option - select the GIF format. Click the Options button & use the Wizard. That's how I did it.

Finally got it! I didn't know you could use the wizard thing. Hm... Tongue

There is a way to do it in Photoshop also, but you need some initial res to get acceptable results......
