Okay, here's a deal.

I've drawn myself some nice bit of leaf. Build from seperate layers. BUT. There is a little whiney white canvas in the back, who i can not destroy nor delete nor nothing. I am only able to close the eye. Then I see what I want to see. A nice, beautiful leaf, with a nice transparant background. BUT if i go and start saving this as an TIFF/GIF or some sort which would support my transparancy, it ends up saving this naggy canvas with it and I still haven't got some nice transparancy in it.

This is very, very frustrating because I'm needing it to be animated within after effects on to a backgroud. And I don't need all this horrorfying whitespace.

So. Anyone can help?
