okay, moth is gone and has left a cryptic instruction about freehand, but i've never used it before and now can't get it to 'export a transparent esp' although i presume he meant eps? but it isn't working?
anyway, just need to make a transparent gif. where did i go wrong? or do i just export a plain old eps and then save for web in photoshop and do the transparency then?
cheers!

actually it's a piece of piss... just had to check myself too though...
file > export > gif
in the dialogue click "setup", then "more"
select transparent background and you can even select the palette of indexed colours you want too!!
Damn I never even realised that bit

i presume he means a transparent eps?

heh. i know, but it's a logo that one of the print fellahs did for some reason in freehand and he's sooooo fucked off with the client that he won't touch it. so it's down to me. i'll try your fix, mx. sounds simple enough! cheers. x
