Quote - HOW can this be achieved in a poser render?

What I've got is this image - I want the figure/clothes/etc of the one on the left to basically look like a ghost, or at the least as if it's immaterial.

NORMALLY, I would just render the scene as and export as a .png without any background (as this was set up to do), but it seems that any time I export a png from Poser7 to Corel (or even Photoshop), it comes in with NO TRANSPARENCIES, so this isn't possible for me to do it the way I would normally. :(I don't know WHY my png's aren't picking up their transparencies. They darn well should. But they're not. I can't figure that out, either.

So.. I'm kinda stuck trying to come up with a way to do this in Poser, as whenever I try to remove the background colour from around the figures via corel it just looks like garbage as I simply can't get to the exact pixel it needs to look like a clean render.

So.. is there any way to do this through the material room, possibly a shader or procedural textures or something of that nature? Buying a shader pack is out of the question for me at the moment, I'm trying to figure out how to do this, and banging my head into a wall. LOL

If only the stupid .png's would come into my image editor with their transparencies proper.... SIGHS
