in photoshop i got a transparent bkground and a pic with fading bits to it.

How do i save it as a gif and preserve this and not get a white line round the outside?

    Well, a fading .gif is quite hard as you can only pick 1 transparent colour. I'd just put whatever colour the background is you're putting the .gif into on a new layer behind the fade. (Like that made any sense).

    File > Save for web, then select the colour you want to make transparent with the dropper and click the little checkered icon on the right hand side, the colour you selected should now be the grey and white checker that PS has for it's transparency. Now set all the compression settings how you want them and click ok.

    dont' work prob that for me coz i have a fade effect.

    what i did was;

    image > RGB colours

    image > resize

    image > index colours

    you lose the fade effect but if you index b4 rezising then you loose quality and definition.
