Or save it as a TIFF if you're on Windows... But make sure your layers are
flattened before you save.

Alpha channel (basic steps)
select the area that you want to be "transparent".

Go to your "channels" tab (it's usually next to "layers")

click the little arrow button and make a new channel, hit OK.

You'll probably see a black screen and your marching ants.  Hit Delete.  The
black are will be the "mask" in effect.

Now - Turn on all Layers in the channels tab.  Then click "layers".  You
should see your object with a red mask over everything else.

save as a pict.  - 32 bit!

Good luck,

Josh

the screen will be black and just delete the area
