Putting an image in the background

I have an image log I would like to put on a flyer.  The background on the flyer is like a black/blueish but the image log as a white background.  How can I take that background image and put it in the flyer so it can blend with the black/blueish background?

I tried to upload the file but it's too big.  Any other way I can send it?

    Thank you much Randy.  I'm trying this is PSD which shows what you mentioned but in ID it's not working on the flyer created.


    Did you delete the white field first? It's not going to convert automatically to transparent by saving the file as a .psd format.

    I actually followed the outline I gave you step-by-step and it worked as expected. It's a quick process. Admittedly I'm experienced doing it, but it took me less than a minute to go through the motions on my studio computer.

    Did you have any problems with steps in the middle of the process? Maybe we can narrow your issues down from the spot where you got unexpected results ...

    Hi all,

    I have another issue with a file.  I created this flyer but out of the blue the screen is locked and I cannot edit the text.  I can I fix that?


    It would be best if you start a new topic with the new question. With this question already being marked as answered, you may not get as many people looking. When you post the new question, include a screen shot of your layers pallet, expanded. It may be that a layer is locked, or that some of the text is on a Master Page.
