    Transparency in PNG

    The program I use doesn't transfer transparency to PNG format correctly. It turns anything transparent to white when I save as PNG. Does anyone know of a free program that's reliable and that can handle transparency in PNG format?

    PS for those curious, I use PhotoDeluxe 3.0. It's sorta like PhotoShop, except it has less features.

                  So anyway:

                  Paint will save as transparent, I believe. I can't prove it.

                      Paint doesn't, only PS.

                      So ask EB he can do it :/.

                          Let's just say I tried POS- I mean PS. The problem was that when I told it to save in PNG format, it saved it in some other format. Then, just now, I tried it again, and it saved as BMP. I was pissed. Then I decided to try again, and it worked perfectly. I guess my copy of PS is just stupid and it can't tell what file format I want and it chooses one itself at random. Oh well I guess I'm going to use PS anyway.

                              What version are you using?

                                  The photoshop is version 8. It also says CS or something. Also, it seems that this PS doesn't save transparency in PNG. I eraser'd a big space then saved as PNG and the transparency wasn't there. Any ideas?

                                      I've noticed some problems with 8 CS as well, such as the fact that I can't use keyboard shortcuts anymore, even when they are enabled. PS 7 might work better for you.

                                              The GIMP supports transparency in .png files. www.gimp.org

                                                  That quote also applies to GIMP. Actually, I'm getting it right now. Thanks for the link.
