Can be difficult... depending on the image. Usually these programs take the picture and ask you to set the colour you want to be transparent. In your case you would no doubt select white. Then it is saved and when ever it is used you only see the page background and the image itself.... but this is dependent on the <<white>> being all the same. Lots of pics when digitized end up getting all their colours smeared a bit... in which case you can see shade variants of white around your black image. If thats the case, setting the transparent colour wont pick up those and your image will end up looking really strange... ghosty. Only way around that is to manually go in and bit for bit change all the unwanted whiteish bits.... with a paint program or photo editor that lets you do that. All this again depends on how sophisitcated your photo editor is to begin with.... some allow larger variances of the transparent colour then others. Maybe someone else knows some other tricks....
