PLEASE help!!

I have been doing detailed background removal with the quick mask teqnique in PSD CS5.

I have been saving for web / devices so to save as a png or a gif so that my client could have these backgrounds transparent.

My client is using:

corel paintshop pro photo XI (window user)

but when he opens the gif / png in that program he is getting the black background

any help to fix this would be awesome thank you!

After you have saved them is the transparency obvious to you when you test in a browser?

If so it may be the way they have their program set up (Corel) not to display the transparent background correctly. In PS you can use the checkerboard bg to display transparency. Corel may have something similar.

But not being a Corel user…but found this

Choose “Set Palette Transparency” from the “Colors” menu at the top of the screen. Click “Set Transparency Value to Current Background Color” and click “OK.” Your background is now transparent.

I actually tested them out in preview and in FW and transparency ok in both aspects.

I have forwarded this and your next email to my client.
