    Ok im confused, is rendering taking an image of a game character, in a screenshot where u have a background, and deleting that background? Cos from what ive seen so far, that seems to be it. The only thing I;ve seen so far that I see as a "render" is a 3d image of Dante from DMC3

    So could someon explain to me? Im a retard. ;(

    its cutting out the image you want from a whole image (eg wallpaper) leaving it with a transparent background.

    You're version of rendering is the REAL kind. But most people on this forum have no where near as much experience as to do that.
