Hey guys,

I’ve never seen this before, and I can’t seem to get Google to give me a good answer (or a working site) so I should ask you guys…

When working in photoshop with an image that will have a transparent background, I save said image as a .gif. When I put it in my HTML page there is a gross white film around the image ☹

Anyone know how this can be fixed?

Thanks! :s:
