I've been trying like hell to get this to work. How do you make a team logo's background transparent, like in the "original" logos?

I've tried to make the background transparent in my Paint Shop Pro, and it works good until I save the file and upload to fumbbl.

So please, tell me how to make it work.

Try IrfanView, a freeware image viewer which lets you store non-transparent gifs as transparent gifs, by choosing the transparent color during saving.

Choose File-Save As. Check the checkbox "show options dialog".
In the options dialog check "Save transparent color" and select "choose transparent color during saving".
Then save the file as new gif-file.

Yeah, figured it out just as I posted that reply. That's why I deleted it. Thanks.

Anyone know how to do this in photoshop? (yes it's an old thread but I didn't see the point of me making a new one)

It would be a great help Smile
