What I did was: 1. Right-click->Layers->Add Alpha Channel 2. Right-click->Image->Mode->RGB (not always necessary) 3. Use magic wand (intelligent scissors) and select the white background parts. 4. Used the Cut operation. At first, before I changed the mode to RGB, the intelligent scissor tool would select the whole image. After switching to RGB, it started working properly again, selecting contiguous regions of similar color. To create a new transparent png, just select the "transparent" option for background in the file->new dialog box. Michael
