there are only specific image formats which support transparecy,
others just make the transparent parts white

Most common are:
gif and png

gif = less of the size,bad for transition or high resolutioned stuff, only up to 256 colors
png = bigger,more detailed, much more colors(about 16-17million)

Use magic wand, select the background and hit delete and it should become transparent.

Start with a background which opacity is set to 0%.

If thats a background double click on it and make it a layer,then set opacity to 0 / cut around your picture
