Hello,
I’m working with Photoshop once in a while and everytime I get into the same troubles… I’d like to make the background of my photos transparent.
Normally I have a background (like a blue field). Then I add a photo (with a person standing in de garden) to it and the photo has just its rectangular form. BUT I want in the blue field ONLY the person’s contour, and NOT the garden … does anyone know how I can achieve this?
It seems to me that it’s a simple thing to do, but I tried everything… the problem is that this person is not a closed object, so the magic wand to select doesn’t work… please help me!?
