Can anyone enlighten me on how to save my work in PS so that the alpha is preserved when I bring it into Dreamweaver? I need to take advantage of using the BG color in Dreamweaver and have the gradient alpha slowly covering it.
peace, love and happiness

A PNG is your only option, but it's not even going to display correctly in IE or a lot of other browsers because of the lack for support.
Maybe use a PNG in flash, then bring the SWF into DW?

there's 2 ways you could do it.
1st way: save the image as a 24-bit PNG file with tranparency then use it as your background image - this won't work in IE 6 tho without some javascript: http://tinyurl.com/y9xthg
2nd way: in photoshop make the image fade from the background colour to your chosen other colour then apply it as a background image: http://dmxzone.com/ShowDetail.as…

no worries, the 2nd way is the best method, avoids any complications with browser issues...
