We'll learn how to create a transparent image with Alpha Channel from a standard image. Photoshop contains powerful Alpha Channel manipulation features. We'll see here one of the simplest way to proceed: Extrude a part of the image and remove the existing background. Advanced techniques also exist to work with alpha channel. See Photoshop help to read more.

4. A selection dashed-line appears around the logo and around the square border of the image. It means that the background is selected (not the logo). If the background is not made of a solid color, you can select it by using the Polygonal Lasso Tool (L) or click . It's a bit more difficult but that's the only way to proceed. 5. Now, we'll select the logo only. To do so, choose Select/Inverse (Shft+Ctrl+I). It's almost unchanged but the dashedline around the square border of the image has disappeared. 6. Choose Edit/Copy (Ctrl+C), then Edit/Paste (Ctrl+V) to create a new layer with the "extruded" logo in it. The "layers" list has been updated (see below). The new layer, which is selected, appears at the top of the list ( ). The original image is present in the background ( ). Now, we'll hide the original image by clicking on the "eye" button of the background layer ( ). If you want, you can also delete it by drag-and-drop it on the trash (at the right-bottom corner of the list).
5. The image document now looks like shown below. The background area (which was white) has disappeared. Now you see a gray-checkboard-like texture around the logo ( ) indicating that this area is in fact transparent.
6. We recommend to save the image to another file to keep the original one intact. Select "File/Save As...". In Format box, select "PNG" (our favorite format). Please note that BMP and PSD formats also support 32 BPP / Alpha Channel. Click Save. Select Interlace: "None", click OK. 7. You're done, the transparent version of your image is created. You can download the image we've created in this tutorial here: logo-ps.png (right-click and choose Save Target As).
