Removing background from JPEG photo

With a JPEG photo in Photo-Paint, I've been able to make the background transparent and just show a specific image either through masking or cutout lab. However, the photo still has its original rectangular shape. I want to remove the transparent background completely and just have the outlined image. Is this possible and how is it accomplished?

    Well, first off the JPG format does not support transparency; it never has.
    What is the end product supposed to be used for? *That* will determine the
    best way to do this, so you need to give us more info as to what, exactly,
    you're wanting to do.
