quick n dirty

create your image
then polygon tool (you can select the one with round edges - it will create a new layer)
make the shape the size you want
rasterise layer
select with wand
invert selection
select image layer
delete
deselect
save for web
a gif will give a transparant background if you use transparancy of your background color
if you want a jpeg, make sure that your background colour is the same as your web page colour

You can also use the Rounded Rectangle tool, and instead of rasterizing, simply right click the rectangle, and select Make Selection. Now, you can pressh Ctrl+Shift+I to inverse your selection, hit Delete, and Bam! You're there. Save it as either a GIF or a PNG. Use the GIF format if the image is not a photographic type of picture. If it has a lot of colors, you will lose some detail in GIF format. The PNG format combines the best things of GIF and JPEG formats into one. I never use it, but that's only becasue I never needed to. The only thing that a GIF can do and a PNG cannot, is be animated. PNGs are still images only.
I hope this helps.
