This is a sig i made for myself. Just started playing with Photoshop...
Im trying to upload this pic with JUST the image...no background. Can someone please explaine how i can do this?

In Photoshop there is the image with the white/grey checkered background..I assumed the background was non existing but I had to save the file as something different to upload with tinypic and thus the white background.

PLEASE HELP. thanks.

You need to save the file as " png " to have the transparent background. If you save it as a " jpg " you will get the white background.

If you are going to use this as a signature on d2jsp, I also recommend you to resize it to follow the site rules.

Good luck! :)

if you want to continue making sigs, i suggest looking up some photoshop tutorials, and sig making tutorials. following tutorials is a good way to gain experience, and allows you to apply that experience on new creations.

if you do want to continue, i would highly suggest finding a different site to host your images on.

tinypic is notorious for recycling their images more often than other sites that allow you to create an account to store your images on.

i used to use image shack, but that's no longer acceptable here due to them recycling their old non-account affiliated images and turning them into ads.

i currently use photobucket as my main uploading site, while another popular site is imgur (which i also have an account on, but don't use as often).

if you're a fan of pop-out images for signatures, you'll soon find that popouts commonly exceed the allowed file size limit. you can either posterize them to reduce the size, or upload them to various sites which will lower the file size for you. someone once recommended tinypng to resize their popout images.
