If your using paintshop pro, go under layers, and click promote to layer.
then use the magic wand selection tool to select the white, and delete it.
It will make the white sections become a transparency.

If your not using PSP, then you'll have to figure out how to add a transparency layer and delete the white part out.

JPG's do not have transparencies, save the image as a PNG and add transparencies the way Shane explained -- works the same way in Photoshop (more or less) ... then save as a PNG, and the image will be transparent when imported.
