How can I make this picture have a transparent background? I don't want the white to show up. If someone could do it real fast for me, that would be fine.

Hello,
- Select the white area, e.g., with the Magic Wand or Quick Selection tool
- Invert the selection (Select > Inverse) to select the Bible
- Convert the Background to a regular layer (Layer > New > Layer from Background)
- Mask the white area as shown on the screenshot
- Open "Save for Web" dialog and export the image to GIF or PNG format (JPEG doesn't support transparency)
