dangit but I still need one more piece of information: is this image with a transparent background going from GIMP > editor or from internet > gimp? if your source file is a PSD with transparency, I haven't worked with thta much. But, if you're exporting out of gimp to editor, use the PNG file format to conserve transparency.

For now, it's just going on another picture.

I'll also take the Gimp > Editor method. I'll need it for Dance of Smash.

If this isnt what your looking for please excuse me I am nowhere near the video editor you guys are but I think I might be able to help

If I understand you right, you are trying to have that image with transparency in photoshop?

<img src="http://s11.photobucket.com/albums/a164/ ... -2copy.gif">

If that was what you were looking to do then ill go step by step

Load the image in photoshop
Cut the section you want to work on
Open a new document make sure the background is set to transparent
Paste the image
Trim out what you dont want
Save as .Gif make sure the box is checked for Transparent in the save menu

If this has nothing to do with what you were asking then im sorry

Whoops! Sorry about the double post

It works like that in GIMP but the process is the same seeing as I can still save it as a PSD and I kept the transparency in the end.

Guys, thank you for the advice. Here's what I was doing with the head.
