View 2 Replies View RelatedGIMP are going to come up with a tool like the refine edge tool that is availale in Photoshop. I really need some way of removing the background of some of the pictures I use. I have attached an example of an image that I would like to remove the background and replace it. I have spent hours trying to work out how to do it successfully.
View 2 Replies View RelatedBefore I pass along to you my request, I'd like to point out that I have watched tutorial, after tutorial on how to remove an image from a background. Every thing goes great, "step by step", (my project compared to tutorial) right to the final procedure. Then my image either turns "white/black", or disappears (lets just say the project does not pan out compared to tutorials).But everything is "fine", right up to final phase. How to do the following....
1. Extract an image from a background (any kind) of background.
2. Instruct me how to take the extracted image, and "save" it to file, to use it in "another" project, at a later time.
3. How to take an image (for instance, a large hole in a tree) and take another image, and place it in there. Inside this hole in the tree, I want to take an image, and "blend" it into the hole in the tree. Another wards,I don't want to just place a vivid "sharp" image into the hole in the tree, I want a " halo/gradual fade out from tree, to a gradual fade in to object placed in tree. I hope you understand my description. Basically, going from a sharp vivid image, to a gradual blending of another image in hole of tree.
I received delivery of a company logo in multiple file formats. I'm trying to get the logo added on various sites across the web. How to get the logo to stand on it's own without a background.
We have the following formats: pdf rar ai png jpg tiff bmp and eps
The background is white and I just want that removed so the logo and company name stand on their own. I have attached an example.
how I can get rid of the bluish colour around the tree that I have removed the background from (see attachement). I first invert the image, then go to "Components", choose Monochrome, adjust the image to get the black background, and finally go to "Levels" to increase the dark background. However, when I had the mask and do the rest of the sequence, I keep getting the blue tinge of the sky around the object I have cut out.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a photo that includes the date the picture was taken on the front of it. The text is in yellow and part of the date covers my suited arm. My question is how can I remove the date, and have the area where the date was reflective of the colors that are in the background (i.e., my suit is gray, so I want the area that the yellow date originally covered, now to appear the same color as my suit.
I am using GIMPshop 2.8.8(?)
I am removing the background on a detailed object(s). I removed the initial part..the ants started marching. Then I pushed "control click", and started on another section..the ants started marching on that piece. Then I moved to my 3rd section doing the same. But when you click your final at your beginning on your 3rd section, the ants start marching there also..but you lose the sections you did previously. So I went to "undo", clicked that, and got my previous sections "back".
But my question is..how can I continue taking out the background in this picture...there are a lot of openings between arms and bodies etc., where I need to remove the background. I've tried removing the background on a detailed image one time before, and the same thing happened. Gimp will only allow you to remove so much, and if you try to remove more, it cancels out what you previously tried to remove...how can I continue removing the background on his image, being the image already has an alpha channel over it. If you try to continue after saving the present image to path/invert...you will lose the image your trying to save in the second process.
I have a stock photo of a white and yellow flower isolated on black and when I add an alpha channel and use 'color to alpha' to remove the black background it creates some transparency in the image too.
I understand that this is because it is taking the black out of the flower too but I thought the point of isolating an image was so that the background can be removed.....which leads me to believe that there must be another way of doing this?
how to remove a background from a translucid/see-through image (where the background can be partly seen behind the image). I included an example in an attachment.
I am able to render anything around the image itself to transparency (using the alpha channel, selection tools, etc.). But in translucent images such as in my example, that leaves what is "behind" the image (that brown stuff in this case).
I would like to remove items from a photo background. I have two pictures on each, there are two persons obscuring some other elements of the landscape. Is it possible to remove the person obscuring the landscape and keep all landscape?

I have tried despeckle, destripe, deinterlace and antilais. The option that works the best is the oilfy filter but to achieve a good result I lose details in his painting.
I tried to do heal selection but it tells me Error: eval: unbound variable: plug-in-resynthesizer. When i go to the registry i find resynthesizer scripts URL.... I install the scripts but still get the message.
Any other tool or script that will be useful besides healing sections of the photo with the healing brush.
I have written a few words and created also a transparent background (I think...)
What I would like to do now is to place a photo as a background to the text I already have. Is that possible or do I have to start with the photo?

I found a bunch of cropping tutorials on YouTube, but they used a lot of advanced (to me) terms and seemed focused on difficult situations.
I have 30-40 photos that are of wooden figures cut on a band saw. They do not have highly irregular edges like hair or fuzz.
I am hoping for a tool that can automatically follow the outline and then let me make any minor adjustments that may be needed.
I'm completely new to Gimp, and have one task that I would like to complete. I'm a fiberartist and would like to replace the backgrounds in my photos with a gradient one.
I have managed to create a "gradient image", and have also tried to follow a PDF tutorial, and YouTube video. The dialog boxes didn't match and I wasn't successful. I tried finding "decompose" and "mask", but it may be the instructions weren't spot on.
I have downloaded Gimp 2.8

My pal here at work has a photo of his father in law running a Marathon and wants to get it framed for his upcoming birthday, unfortunatley the runner just behind him (in the photo) is quite prominent so he wants to try and remove/edit.
I am new to the gimp software and am struggling blending a photo into a solid color background.I cannot seem to get rid of the hard end of the photo. I have tried applying a mask then using the blending tool, but still cannot remove the line.
Blurring image, i'm just messing around to try... [URL]....
I did put a real photo in the background of my website to fit entire page. So the text of my webpage is black, and sometimes other colors. So what happen is that some times the text is hard to read when it come on top of dark places of the photo (for example hear of people). So i want to adapt the photo to make it more unicolor, more whiten (increase whiteness) so the black text will appear even better.
What tools and filters in gimp that give me this ability to do that ?
I have a site template as jpeg photo
I want to make same effect as on this photo with buildings in background.
I can make it with GIMP black/white, but how can i make it yellow???
I've been looking through the net for an answer to how to remove a background from an image. I saw the tutorial on this site but it didn't help in removing the background from the image I am using.
The background I want to remove is almost like a shadow so it is difficult to distinguish the colours, as everything is black,white and grey. I tried using color range and the magic wand but nothing works.
I have a really funny animated gif I wanna remove the white background on, thus making it transparent.
The image is opened in Adobe ImageReady CS and I can see it contains 185 layers. I am a nOOb on Adobe ImageReady CS, but know a lot about Adobe Photoshop CS.
