My way is this: select a circular part of the pic, click on "crop to selection," go to the "background eraser tool", and use it on a small portion of one of the white outside areas. I have found a way to get where I want to go but it is complicated and I am thinking surely there is a better way. At that point when I go to the Selections menu and then to the invert command, it is grayed out and cannot be used. After I use the selection tool to create a circle, and then hit "crop to selection" I get the crop with white borders making up a square. This works, but it is cumbersome and considerably more trouble than I need to go through when I use other photo-editors.I appreciate your help. Then I have to do another circle with the selection tool (inside the original circle) and then again hit "crop to selection." At this point I get my circular pic with the checkerboard border which tells me I can save it as a png or gif and won't get the white border around the edges.
