Hello,

In PS 4.1 when I exported an image to a transparent gif, I was given an option to change the background color to match the web background so that blurred edges do not show as halos. In PS7, I do not see the export to gif option. I can save the image as a gif, but cannot seem to find how to change the background color.

Can anyone advise how I do this, or point to me the right place in the help files?

Thanks,

Roger

Kingdon,

Thanks for the help. I actually found the answer this morning when I went looking for my message in the very next thread below my post.

Thanks again.

Roger.
