i figured it out with psp, but damn there's gotta be an easier way!

CatCop

yep, Looks like you figured it out.
I prefer to just have the background match the forum because, Well then I can have higher quality.

Got_Cereal

what do you do to have the background match the site background color?

Well, the easy way to get a color off of something is to take a screenshot and use an eyedropper <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

There are compressed targas (RLE) that offer transparency too, and I'm pretty sure it's not lossy (just make sure you don't make the file size too large).

Make whatever you want transparent, in PhotoShop, one solid color. When you're done with the picture, select the Magic Wand Tool[W]. Uncheck the tool's "Anti-Aliased" and "Contagious" boxes at the top of the screen if they're checked. Click the color, and hit Delete on the keyboard. It should have a Checker Pattern, that means it'll be transparent.
