When I create a gif in photoshop or imageready with out a background and then place it on a page with color other than white you see a white edge around the image. What is the problem and how do I get the edges not to have that white outline type of look. On lens flare I create a image with a red, blue, and yellow cylinder I added a lens flare affect to the ends of each, when I create a gif with imageready the lens flare is yellow on all the cylinders. I need it to be either white on all or better yet the color of the cylinder.

Kelly, When you save as a ,gif with transparent background, the edges will be anti-aliased to white by default. That is the white fringing you are observing. To have it antialiased to another colour, set an appropriate Matte colour. You can't use transluceny effects with a .gif as they only support one level of transparency - a colour is either on or off, not 50% opaque. If you want translucency, you have to save as a 24-bit .png file. Unfortunately IE versions prior to IE 7 don't have native support for 24-bit .png and you have to code an HTML page to use the AlphaImageLoader active-X control to display them in those browsers.

When saving it, Karen. In the Optimize palette under the Transparency section.

Alan, For future reference it would be better had you started a New Topic with a meaningful Title as your question has nothing to do with Gif transparency. Adding a non-related question to a topic is considered "Topic Hi-jacking" and is discouraged as it is inconsiderate to the person who originated the topic and makes it harder to search the forum for a specific item. You can double-click on a layer name to rename it in IR.
