Hi,
I have extracted an image from the background and trimmed it. However, the trim still leaves a little box around my image (even though the background is gone i.e. there is a tiled background). However, when I save the image as a jpeg (or anything else) it still produces the background.
How can I export JUST the image without a white background? Thanks!

Thanks for you reply,
Unfortunately, I still get the white background in TIFF and the other formats...
I am trying to make just an arrow so I can paste it in vegas pro video I am making, but I am trying to get rid of the white background...
Is there something I am missing about what you suggested? I created an alpha channel (and the image turned a bright red) and then I saved as a TIFF (and the other formats) but the quicktime viewer still shows a while background....

Thank you for the video it was certainly informative...
Unfortunately I am still getting the white background...which raises the question of whether my programs support what I am trying to do.
When I open the tiff file I use quicktime viewer, and when I try to import the image into my video, I am using Sony Vegas. Are these programs not compatible with what I am trying to do?
