ok now. this was a more difficult one to do because the background was several different shades of white (i only know how to make 1 transparent..perhaps somehow you can do more than 1 i dont know....) and once converted to one shade, said shade was also in other parts of the image (like the hat) which would also be transparent. so i ended up having to make the entire background a different colour (blue) and making IT transparent...
anyways, to make a colour transparent, go colour->set palette transparency->(pick colour to make transparent)

Easiest way:
Use magic wand to select white bg
Export as .gif (Web Toolbar)
For transparency, select "inside current selection"
