Photoshop Issue [SOLVED]

[Dualnames]

I have made a bit of animated snow. Let's take the first frame.


Now this is the image, no layers. I had to fill the image with a black background cause otherwise it wouldn't result to this.

The issue is that when i place the image on top of the background in photoshop and set mode to SCREEN, it works exactly as i want it. So how do I manage to export the image in such a way that I accomplish that?

I think Calin's plugin or some plugin has photoshop modes, so perhaps that's the way, but regardless, I'd prefer no use of any plugin.

There are a few ways, mine may not be the simplest:

Copy the snow image to clipboard.

Create a new layer and flood fill it white.

Enter Quick Mask Mode.

Paste the snow image.

Exit Quick Mask Mode.

Selection > Inverse and then press Delete 
OR
Layer > Layer Mask > Reveal Selection.

Now delete the original snow layer and save as a PNG.

You could create an action to make it quicker for an animation. Or do whatever faster method someone else suggests...
