If your using the icon app, I believe that it starts you off with a transparent background.  But if you find yourself with an opaque white background, then what you want is to set the outside color to be white with 0% opacity.  You can probably use the 'fill' tool to do it all at once.  Yes, I just tried it and got it to work but beware IT ONLY SEEMS TO WORK IF YOU USE THE DETAIL WINDOW.  HINT: use the tool inspector to find the fill tool.  Here's the result.
