Can I render an image with a transparent background?

So, say I can take it to another program (something like photoshop) to do a ground there?

Also, how do I change the background color of a render?

    I think that works when you use no object in the background of your renders and save the image to PNG mode, I think.

    That's how to do this, yes.

    The transparent background is meant to be white?

    Never mind, the white background disappears when I take it into gimp or photoshop

    Vata I usually change my background color to black when saveing as a png ,so there is no outline around my figure ......go to the little line box near the camera window and click on it and then you'll see the background color option.

    I always render to Tif format. This format provides an alpha channel.

    This works, but Tif is the only image format that does not have a set guide for how they are read or written. What works in one prg might not in another. PNG is a standard format with guidelines to be used in all software.
