Transparent Images

Hi!
Just wondering if there's any way of making an image background transparent quickly!

If it would be useful, I used GIMP; I try and select the background colour, but it also selects everything else of the same colour as the background

Thanks in advance!

use ms word 2010, or 2007 , open it up, click on image click format, set transpernt color , and click on the color u want transperent and your done, i forgot how you do it on photoshop, or gimp

I dont have MS Word 2010 or 2007 - I have 2003.

When I do this on 2003 version using the "Magic Pen" Tool, It only takes away one colour-I have multiple ones

Thanks again

how bout paint.net?

PAINT.NET

You can go to the graphic section and get your images transparent.

OK Thanks, guys!
