How do you create a plain white background

[willeminuk]

Hi,

I'm looking to make my background render plain white ( Sketchup models background is plain white ) If i change colour to white under enviroment ( Colour drop down box ) it always comes out grey/black.

Do you need an alpha channel for photoshop?
Why the need for a white background.

Increase the background multiplier until it's white in the final render (between 10 and 50 usually does it). A white piece of paper in a dark room appears black, a black piece of paper held under a football field floodlight would look blinding white- it's the same principle with rendering: a white background which has too little luminance (controlled by the multiplier) will appear black or grey depending on camera settings.
