@jewelsinthecrown well, yeah. But I wasn't able to upload my sets on here
So, I just uploaded my draft sets through Pinterest.
P.S. Hope they will help you -
@jewelsinthecrown ~ Hi sweetie! You will need a website that will upload png format. PInterest does not upload in that format. It is only JPG files. I use a website that I have used for years, however, I am not charged for it as I do not leave the images there once I upload them to Urstyle. The editor in Urstyle does not do a good job of converting over to PNG. It is hard to control the white around the images. PNG is another very common and versatile image format found on the web today. Boasting a “lossless” compression, you can save a PNG and not lose any quality. However, this will (in most cases) yield a very large file size. Here is a link that you will find free uploads. I hope this helps. If it does not, let me know and I can send you others.
Hugs, Beverly

Hi Michele. Some time ago I made a tutorial to show how I bring my own edits over from Pinterest and keep the transparency. This is the link. I hope you find it helpful.

@auntiehelen ~ The file that you choose from Pinterest does not change to png by opening it in another window. Even though it says png, the background is white. It also can have a black background in Microsoft photo, etc. Since png is a Photoshop format, the white or black background must be converted to the checkerboard back. This must be done in Photoshop or some other software such as Paint, etc. If I take a Pinterest image and open it in another window, it removes what was once behind it, however, it does not make it transparent. You can even see that when you transport it to Urstyle. It will be have a white background. It does not have the transparency that a true png will have. Just wanted to respond to your comments.

@Beverly thank you darling just checked out that site but am at a loss what to do. It says I need to create an account is that what I need to do?
-
@auntiehelen thank you I will check these urls out thank you ladies for your help.
-
@asia-12 thank you for your response I just may have to do that as well.
-
@jewelsinthecrown hey Michelle, I also am of the understanding that tumblr works great for importing into Urstyle. @Beverly I am with you on the png formatting
Cheers Ollie

@ollie Please check this out, Ollie. I have no wish to argue with you, but I brought this from Pinterest, and it has a transparent background.

@asia-12 (not the original poster but so glad I checked this post thank you so much! )
-
@auntiehelen Yes, it is a png file ... has kind of blown my mind as I have never found a png image on pinterest yet
-
@auntiehelen you are absolutely right. I have a secret board on Pinterest where I save PNG images and they definitely keep the transparent background.
-
@ollie I keep mine in a secret board .I found when I kept them on a public board people were bringing them over the wrong way and losing the transparency!!! XX
