I have Ulead's Photoimpact ver 4.0 and need to create a transparent
background for a JPG image to use on a webpage. Is there a way to do
it with this program...details please.
Thank you.

Jpeg doesnt allow for transprency, use a websnap gif codec or a PNG file.

If I re-scan the image and save it as a GIF, how do I use Photo Impact
to make the transparency?
thanks

You don't have to re-scan.
Just use Save As in any program to make it a GIF file, then you can
open and edit the GIF and remove what you want to be transparent.

Along those lines (sorry, lost the OP), it's easiest to mask out what you
don't want, flip the mask to give you what you do want, then paste just
that into a new image, saving it as a .gif--that will produce a transparent
background.

Of the two, it's probably best to use a gif for a website image, because
the vile IE can't handle alpha channel transparency in a png, and if one
doesn't even know how to *make* a transparent background, one might end
up using that method with the png.
