Transparent Background A real estate agency contacted me for head shots, I'm in the process of working up a quote. I have one problem, They are requesting that I give them a headshot with a transparent background. I know how to use the layers and take out the background, but I cannot figure out how to save or export the file so that the image w/tp background is all you have left. I need to save just the image so when they use it, they can open it in any program and use it (like powerpoint.) Everytime I save or export it, some how it fills in the transparent background with white. Is it possible to do this?

I believe the .png file format supports transparency, not sure how high of quality image it saves, but you may want to try saving as a .png file and see if it works. You might even want to ask them if they have used a particular format in the past that works for them.

Don't flatten the layers. If png doesn't work, psd keeps the layers intact.

Save the file as PNG and it will have transparency. PNG is excellent and keeps all detail. I've done this in GIMP, and it should work in PS, too.
