Hello,

I can't remove the background from a logo I have created. I am using Photoshop Elements. I bought a book and I searched the help index's and I could not find how to do this. I'm somewhat new to Photoshop but not a very beginner. I created the logo on a transparent background, but when I save it there is always a square border around the logo, usually white. I just want a .jpg of the logo itself.

Thank You For Your Assistance

Jimmy

Hi,
the jpg format does not have transparency ability... you need to save the file either in gif or png format...!

Also, if you are saving for Web to go on top of a background color other than white, click on the Matte: color rectangle (in the Save for Web & Devices box) and dial in the color of your background. This gives Photoshop a color to dither curved edges against instead of white.
