When I copy an image with a transparent background into an image editing program like Photoshop, I get a black background

I'm wondering if there's a way to preserve transparency, or even change the color of the background to white.

I often need to get reference pictures for my artwork, and it is a pain to have to save every image and the black background often makes it difficult to see the image, especially when the image has only black pixels.

Help?

You can try to drag the image in a Photoshop window instead.
If that still doesn't work then you need to save the image and open it in Photoshop.
