Brian,
What is the file format of the files you upload? Remember Jpeg doesn’t have transparency, although you already should have noticed that at conversion.
Also if a psd is flattened the transparency is replaced by the current background colour. The image should be a real layer, not a background layer.
Rob
Rob,
Thanks for the reply.
..jpg file uploads from .psd file with layer alone on transparent background.
Scenario:
new file opened in PS > choose transparent background > type a word > it is sitting alone on a transparency as .psd > Save a copy > choose .jpg > Save.
Upload at Cafe Press > there is the word > with white background.
Your turn.
And thanks again for responding.
Brian
Brain: You have to save as .gif to keep the transparent background.
Or png.
Jpegs do not support transparency.
I read it. But apparently Brian didn’t understand.
wrong thread (how the heck did i get in here?!!)
You’d think when you spend $700 to $1000 for an application you’d learn how it use it.
"Using older version of PShop". Hmmmmmmmmmmm.
Well I guess he did pay $1000 bucks for it.
Or ‘borrowed/found/Ebay/already installed on’.
Well I guess he did pay $1000 bucks for it.
I meant, Well I guess he didn’t pay $1000 bucks for it.
G’day Brian
If you do a lot of uploading then if you also learn about actions you can save yourself a lot of time by doing several steps at the click of a button.
Ignore Buko and ID.Awe! their idea of helping newcomers who ask, what is to them a simple question, is to automatically accuse them of being thieves! (i.e. using pirated copies of Photoshop) Or arrogantly suggesting that you learn how to use your copy of Photoshop when that is why you posted a question here in the first place wasn’t it? – to learn!
I know many people who learnt on ‘borrowed’ copies of Photoshop and then went on to purchase the full versions or suites which is the right thing to do, not everybody has a thousand bucks to spare or the ability/time to learn such a massive program in three months.
So ask away and most other mature Photoshoppers will help even if it is to suggest that the help files are a good place to start or to get the Classroom in a Book series. The rest! just ignore, which is really what I should do isn’t it LOL
regards
John
