Can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong. I don't want the black background. I only want the picture to show up when i'm exporting. I can't figure out how to get rid of it.

I would appreciate any help.

Thank you!

      If there is a lock on the layer, drag the lock to the trash

      Hold down the Cmd key and click on the Create a New Layer symbol in the Layers panel to place a layer below the image layer.

      Edit > Fill with White

      Return to the image layer

      Choose the Magic Wand and click in the black area

      Strike the Delete key

      Choose Layer > Flatten Image

      Select the part of the image that you want to keep > under Select choose Inverse > then under Edit Fill with White

      ...or just crop it. That black "background" is in fact part of your image.
