If you make a picture into a transparent gif you can make it into a picture tube in PSP and keep the quality looking great! To make a tube from a graphic with a white background open it and if it is a gif go to Color > Increase Color Depth > 16 Million Colors. Next take the magic wand and click in the white area of the picture. Then go to Selections > Invert. Now go to Edit > Copy and then Edit > Paste as New Image. It should now be transparent.
Next go to File > Export > Picture Tube
