Not much to say today, but I figured out how to make images transparent using PSP :)
It goes like so:

1) Open image in PaintShopPro

2) If it is not already a "raster" type layer (eg. background) right-click to promote to layer

3) Select the "Magic Wand Tool"

and select the folloring settings:

4) Click on the area of space you want to be transparent (in this case it's the white background colour)-- a dotted line will appear around the selected area.

5) Click delete on your keyboard and right-click anywhere on the image

make sure you get all the areas to be transparent.

delete

7) TADA! "instant" transparency! :D
