  Transparent background in still image

  Hi

  Is there any way to render a still picture that has a transparent background, like PNG has?

  Thanks

  OK i figured it out with this tutorial: https://www.pixel2life.com/forums/lofiversion/index.php/t792.html

  First it didn’t work but then i looked at the comments and found this “i had the same problem. open photshop, duplicate your render layer and delete to original so it is not locked as the background. then go to your channels tab, and ctrl-click the alpha layer. then select inverse (ctrl-shift-i) and then delete. it will get rid of the background leaving only your render. thats the only way i found to work and it cuts it out perfectly.”

  Worked with a transparent model too
