Description
Happy, tasty snow cones. Now that summer is over I feel like eating one. I guess I'm a little odd because I don't usually crave ice cream and cold stuff until winter.If anyone knows where I can download (for free, I don't have any money!) a program that allows me to get rid of the whitespace around my pics, I would be forever grateful.

you don't need a program to get rid of the wite...if you save it as a png file and don't but a bg (background) on it then it should be the way i thibk you want it to be

Cute!
MS Paint is always an option, even though it's really low-quality. If you're willing to pixelate your drawing a bit, you could paste it onto Paint and crop the edges off easily. With Paint, it's saved exactly the way you see it.

I tried, but I think because I have Vista, I have a dumbed down version of Paint with limited options. That's okay though, 'cause I found a whole list of free photo editing software! There is one called Artweaver that looks pretty cool. Thanks for the help though!

Cuuuute~!! 
As far as getting rid of the white space goes, try playing with the layers. You could always just paint bucket it or do a faded sort of background. I actually think that if you were to do some coloring in with those flowers-- maybe just for practice--well. The sno-cones, because they have such bright colors, would really stick out even more if you took a low-intensity, large brush and colored the flowers, letting yourself go outside the lines. The effect I'm trying to get would be something like a child's coloring job in the background; pale purple flowers would be the result. You could also, if the whitespace is part of a different layer, mess with the contrast and brightness or the hue. If you changed the hue you could make the background a faint pink or gold, which I think would look nice.
Ranty-rant.

The problem is that once I save it as a png. or jpg. the background turns solid white again. Probably because everything is all on one layer. Serif doesn't have brushes, just a bucket to fill everything with. That's one of its limitations. I will give it a try!! Thanks a lot!
