Help/Support Photoshop transparent stock image

Sakswa · May 28, 2015

So, I am trying to make a signature, but I want the background to be transparent, this is my problem:

Is there any way I can remove the black parts, and make it transparent, or do I need a background for that?

Delete the background layer and save everything in .PNG

Delete the background layer if you have one. If you don't you're screwed.

Always use layers, it makes things easier.

You can also create a new project and move the text layers and everything to the new one with the transparent BG, if possible.

if you used photoshop, make new layer first then delete the background layer. Save it often or so, because what if you forgot to save it as .psd and you saved it as .png instead

also, i checked your image's hotlink; obviously it is in .png and you may either forget to delete the background layer or not.

If you are planing to post it as .png or something with the transparent. imgur support it kinda, but not over [X] size which changed to .jpng. sometimes, it doesn't show the transparent background and changed it to black, grey, or white whatever it showed up on imgur hotlink

you can read it here

deviant art might be best in my opinion if you got [X] size
