For a transparent background you'll want to export as a tiff or png.

I suggest using the .png format to save your rendered image. It's what is known as a "lossless" format and doesn't compress the image so the quality remains high. Also if your graphic program supports transparent alpha channels the image will not have a background when you open it inside PSP.

If you save as a .tiff you will need to apply the image to itself as a mask in order to get rid of the background.

No one is going to laugh at you :)  Poser is not an easy program to learn. So don't be afraid to ask questions because that's how we all learn :)
