Have you tried .png which can hold the alpha channel transparency?

There are better ways >.>
If your using PS(photoshop) than heres how.
In your tool box there Is an eraser, If u right clikc It says "background eraser"
This will let u click on the white and It will turn It transparent.
If you have trouble with that, use the pen tool to outline the flower and copy and paste It onto a transparent doc.
Try this out and let me know how It goes.
Save as Png. Otherwise It dosent work, jpeg dosent do transparent =)

Hi
You can insert jpg picture without backgroud. You must:
I. In Photoshop:
1. Create path by "pen tool".
2. Copy this path by "path selection tool".
II. In Illustrator:
1. Place jpg picture.
2. Paste path by CTRL C (PC) or cmd C (Mac).
3. Select picture and path by selection tool.
4. Create clipping mask (cmd 7 or menu/object/clipping mask/make)
5. In this way you will get jpg without background.

works with my photoshop, and painter too, though not of course on the background layer

You're right, JPG doesn't support transparency. It's a limitation within the file format.
(see also Wikpedia articles about Graphics file formats)

Hello
You're right, JPG doesn't support transparency, but I wrote that jpg in Illustrator can be placed without background (path will be masking background).

Hey there,
So my understanding of jpgs has been turned on its head as of today!
Check out the attached and place it in an indesign doc... then tell me how on earth this jpg has a transparent b/g??!!??
I don't know how they've done it! There is a RGB/8# in the title of the file in PS... and I can't seem to get the # in there on other jpgs no matter how I save them?! However, this may not have anything to do with it...!
Completely perplexed,
Rexoids!
