Hi, I'm Brian. I'm a newbie here. I have photoshop7. I have designed a web page in photo shop. I am trying to send it to someone so that she can place it on her web page. I have for example some font that has, inner glow,bevel&emboss,and color overlay. How do I save it so that it looks the same on my photoshop page as it will on someone elses page. When I save it as a transparent gif it's coming out on her page with the correct colors but instead of having the emboss effect it looks like it's stroked in white. I have tried doing it few ways now but no luck. I'm sure I'm missing a step some where. Thank you for you help and look foward to soaking up alot of photoshope knowledge in the future.

I want to be able to put this on any bg and have the bevel and emboss still show rather than the WHITE around it.

I assume you're saving using Save For Web. If not you need to. In the save for web dialog box there is a box for "matte" with a colour picker beside it. This colour needs to be the colour of of the background of the web page that the image is going on.

you have to save it as a .gif for it to work in IE, .png will preserve the transparency, but only in certain browsers.
