    are you saving to PNG? If so, you're saving with an alpha channel. I'm not sure if it preserves the background or not, but the easy work around is to save to JPG.

    If you're saving to .tif then you get exactly the same alpha channel that you get saving to .png — both of them will tend to not show a background pic that isn't actually part of the scene.

    What are you using to look at your saved renders? There are ways to "flatten" the image to make the alpha channel visible.
