Hello,

I would like some help with the rounded rectangle tool.

I made a background with the rounded rectangle tool and I also made a web button for users to click on my website.

How do i just save the rounded rectangle shape without the rest of the canvas background around it.

The button I made, I tried to reduce the canvas area to just around it, but when i put it on my website the button has the rest of the canvas framing around it, so it looks funny. I just want the rounded rectangle as the image file and nothing else around it.

How do I do that?

thanks,
Jessica

Save for web with transparency as a gif or png.

Make sure that the circle you draw is on a seperate layer and also turn off the white background layer (click the eye icon next to it). Then save as above.
