I have tried 10 times now and all I am trying to do is remove a white background to a logo and export so that the background is transparent. Every time I remove the background and export and open, it shows up with the white background again. I know this is simple and driving me nuts.
I'm using CS5.1
how I can turn a logo (in jpg/bmp/gif) on a black background into a logo on a transparent background.
The logo is is like an eye with a lot of detail.
I'm designing a header logo for a website with Photoshop CS4 (Mac) but am struggling to understand how to get the background transparent.
In Photoshop I've designed the logo using multiple layers. Prior to saving I've disabled the background layers (used for testing purposes), thus leaving a transparent area behind the logo (shown as a checkerboard pattern). However, I don't understand what the next step is. I've tried "Save for web" as well as flattening it first, only to result in a white background. I suppose I don't need to flatten it then I've also messed around with the transparency and matte options in the "Save for web" window but to no avail (yes, I know that I need to save in either GIF or PNG though for the latter I don't know the difference between PNG 8 and 24 and which of the three formats I should go for).
As for "Matte"; is this the color in the image which should be made transparent? So that in my case with a logo containing white among several colors I should make the background something entirely different from the logo as a background layer and choose "Matte" for that? I've also experimented with that but to no avail.
I have tried to research this and i have tried to do it (with limited success), but any specific steps on how to get a rounded logo with a /transparent/ background? i sometimes get a rounded logo (and sometimes i get stuck) but I have only been able to get a white background and not a transparent one.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI was asked to cut out the background from a logo to make it transparent so the logo would look nice on a variety of backgrounds. I've been given a good quality jpeg file.
What I did was I selected (by colour) the background (white), inverted the selection, copied it and pasted as a new image.
It's all fine (the logo itself doesn't have any other elements) but there's still some whiteish/greyish outline around certain elements of the logo.
If I were to do it manually, it'd probably take ages. What would be the best way to accomplish it?
I think there is an easy way of accomplishing this without having get into selecting the background or the logo?

I'm trying to add a .png logo with a transparent background to a photo, but it always shows up as a gray background. What am I doing wrong.
I created a .png file from our organization logo. I used the magic wand to select and "delete" the backgound, leaving it transparent. However, when placed on our web site, the logo edges have a slight line. What must I do to not have the lines (to make the background truly transparent)?

A client gave me a PDF of a typical architectural floorplan; with various rooms in the building. My job is to slice it so that each room is a separate slice. Easy. But we need the background of each slice to be transparent. Essentially we want to overlay a line drawing outline of the rooms on a different background.But when I save it as either a GIF or a PNG, it always saves the bg as -white-, regardless of how I try to set the transparency colour.
Now in Corel, if you save as a GIF or PNG and set the transparency colour to the -background- colour (white), the GIF or PNG auto-magically gets saved with a transparent bg. But this is not happening for me.
So... is there a way to save my GIF, PNG slices so that the white is automatically converted to transparency in each slice?
Or do I have to -manually- remove all the white in the main image (not looking forward to that!) and then slice?
I'm using CS and am trying to get an image into a QuarkXpress doc (Ver 6.1).
I think it has a tranparent background (i.e. I can see through the image in PS to the gray and white checked board). I save it as a TIFF and then when I 'get picture' from Quark, it appears with a white background.
How can I lose the background so that the holes in the image show the background that is in the picture box in Quark?
I have seen that there are several posts regarding "transparent backgrounds," but but they're difficult to follow.
I'm using AI within CS5.5 but new to it. I am importing/converting a JPG file to vector format. The image is a logo with a large black circle boundry and a white opaque background. The background elements inside the boundry circle are also opaque white, and I wish to leave that as is. The edges of the circle touch the boundries of the JPG file tangentially by about 100px or so on each side when the JPG is viewed at original size.
My objective is to make everything outside the boundry circle a "transparent" background. What would be the best/easiest way to do this within AI? Is there, for example, a tool that will draw a circle that I can expand to get on the edge of the black boundry circle, and then make everything outside it transparent?
I have spent some time trying, in PaintShop Pro 7, to create an image with a transparent background to use as a layer over an underlying jpg.
I have now done it in Gimp, and tried it over another image in Gimp - it works. But when I export the image either as a GIF or as a JPG there is no transparency when I paste it over another image in PaintShop Pro.
Perhaps it would be easier to do the whole thing in Gimp, but it would be convenient to be able to do it in PSP too.
I'm practicing using Coreldraw and made a logo with a transparent background. It's a combination of rectangles and text. I exported the logo as a png. Everything looks fine in corel, but when I upload it to the web the edges are very ragged on the rectangles and text. I tried it with and without converting to curves and the same thing happens.

For this web project we need cropped images with no transparent background, no background at all.
I am trying to overlay a logo on top of my titles. The logo is a circle and is in PNG format. When I use this logo in documents it is totally transparent with only the circle showing. However, when I try to use it in my video the circle has a white square around it, the white being the transparent area.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI need to strip my current image of its background color so that the background color on my website goes thru my image. In other words I need a transparent background for my image.
I have create a new layer that is transparent, but the background color on my website does not go thru it. The background color of this image appears to be grayish not transparent.
To explain this as easy as possible. I want to achieve the following.
Create a shape.Create a letter via a type layer.Creating a clipping mask of the type layer so it appears inside the shape.Make the text layer a transparent shape. So regardless of the background I put it on the letter will always appear as if it is a cut out of the shape.
I want to do all of the above while keeping the shape and the text layer vector objects. I do not know Adobe Illustrator, so this is my only route.
Okay. I don't know how many logo/watermarking videos I've watched but I still don't have what I want. I have a logo but I haven't had any luck getting it into transparent form.
Text is easy, but I want to have my logo beside the text. Any simple instructions. Most videos I've watched don't show how to combine an existing logo to text.
how to create a transparent logo and add it over a picture? I will also be adding this over a video..

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am experiencing some problems in getting a .dwg file I created in AutoCAD 2012 into Photoshop. Basically what I did was traced a jpg file (lots of detail) but now I want to bring that into Photoshop and put some color on it. I used the export option and saved as bmp but then the lines are all jagged (when I zoom in, the detailed features and various lines get blurry, I can see the pixels). Is there any other way to be able to use the work I already did in AutoCAD? I would not like to start my work from scratch in Photoshop.

I want my whole logo to be transparent. I have saved it png, png 24. And still nothing works. How to get this box to disappear. Just to make sure I wasn't doing something wrong I took a photo and made the background transparent and took the selection that was not and put it into a different photo and the white square edge was still around it.
View 15 Replies View RelatedI have created a logo. I did it with black fill and white lines. This works well for a white background, like in print; but for the web the white needs to be transparent so the background colors show through and where lines cross you can see the background.
I have tried making the lines with out fill, but of course, that gives no defination of the small spaces that I want not to be black.
I have a background ( a brush that i downloaded as a template). I also have designed a logo. I want the logo to be superimposed on the background...but there is a white square edge around the logo blanking out the background.
Can you tell me how i can make the background of the logo transparent so that i can see the graphic background?

I have a self designed logo that looks great on a white background. Problem is when I put the logo over a picture the outside area of the "o" in natco shows behond the red square. I want the outside of the "o" to be flush with the red square so it looks good when I put it over a picture.
