I understand your frustration, but keep in mind working with images takes time and has it's own learning curve. That's why some people only specialize in doing images. I myself am not not an expert in image manipulation, but will try to re-visit my post and add more detail over the weekend. The steps I have laid here were from images that I updated to remove the background and fit on any background. If you want me to look at your image, feel free to contact me. Regards Hi Lisa, thank you for going through my post.

I downloaded GIMP just yesterday and tried this and it doesn't work. I am so frustrated. I've been assigned the task of making flyers for a group I am in and I want them to look professional. Are there certain specifications for the image in order for this to work? When I go to save the image it says the colors can not be reduced and the image will be saved as opaque? So it seems this does work but there may be a problem with the images I am using. Could you go into more detail about the images? Format, size, etc? This is making me nuts! any more help would be greatly appreciated! Hi, I was so happy to see this post because I have been trying to make backgrounds on different images transparent to no avail.
