Description a tutorial on how to get a picture made in sai to have transparency for those with the older english versions
if using gimp you can also use the tga to export with(not sure about photoshop but it should work)

Gimp is free

feel free to ask questions
1. alot of persons are saying you can do it directly from sai
ans. i have a older verson of sai and when clicking png the box does not pop up
2. yes i realized i could update it and i finally did -_-

Um, I did everything you instructed but when i opened the file in gimp it wasn't transparent. I still had the white background. What should I do in this case? Please help ; ;

don't know why its not working for you but before you change change from the sai file you could try filling the background with a color you didnt use in your drawing then in gimp or Photoshop you can remove that colour also making the background transparent. also i'm not sure if this tutorial works wit the current gimp but that shoud
