    nope. doesnt appear to work


    I have cut n paste the avater and added it as a new layer onto a transparent layer.

    then used the erase function to remove the white area......

    I try saving it and include opacity or is it interlaced.....

    looks ok, but doesnt work as an avatar...

    Go to the trouble of messing around with his av, make it transparent for him,tidy up the straggly bits and he doesnt even use it.
    Might just delete the pic.

    Thanks for that but can you explain a bit more please.
    The screen shots are nothing like the new version of Paint Shop Pro.
    I can find the background eraser tool and get it to work but no matter what I try I cannot get it to save
