Hi

I am new to Photoshop and have just started a course. I want to create a banner with text that has a transparent background. For my business name to be at the top of my webpage.

Could someone please give me some basic step-bystep as to how to go about this in Photoshop?

I have tried several way and can create a banner with a white background but when I create text with a transparent background and save it as a jpg the background becomes white again.

You have to save it as a GIF image. JPG’s can’t handle transparent colors. 😉
