Photoshop Elements :: How To Crop Pictures And Make Background Transparent
Feb 20, 2014
I am looking to crop some pictures and make the background transparent. This is one of my pictures below. The problem I am coming across is with it being see through, I cant seem to just pick and grab the blue rods, golf balls and clips they are sitting on. It seems to want to pick up everything including the gray background. I heard photoshop would make this possible. is this true? Also, what program would be the best for me? I want to spend the littlest i can. I am looking at the adobe photoshop elements and premier movie element 10. Would this work? Any good video describing how to crop and make the background transparent.
I have photographed an item in raw and edited in photoshop and saved it as a Jpeg. In PS elements 10 . It seems like the background is transparent how ever if i open the item in another program like word it does not have a transparent background. What am I doing wrong ? Do I need to save it in a different format ?
I have a picture with white background . I want to crop only the picture from there with transparent background .
i read your forum and i use the Magic Wand Tool , and i save the image in png , but the image saved was also with white background . How i can do this .
Every picture from google (or mostly) has a white background, when it is a picture of a single object. Is it possible to save the picture after cutting out the background? I'm working on a video whit a video editing program and I need to insert the picture without the useless white background, just the object.
Example:
In the middle the picture of an object whit the white background. I want just the object without the white background.
I want to create a collage of small pictures. I would like some of the pictures to be rotated, but not at 90 deg or 180 - at smaller angles off normal. I do not see how to rotate an image by a preselected angle, or rotate on the fly.
As a second question, for the pictures I want to make the background [usually a solid color, white] transparent so I can overlay one object with another.
How do I make just the background fully transparent, without affecting an object?
I have over 90 years worth of pictures I have to scan. 1 at a time is... well... on option I don't want to use. I am new to PS. Will the program allow me to put multiple pics on my flatbed scanner, have them automaticly split up, then put in a folder???
i have a png image whit a blue backgroundif i select the background and press CANC photoshop ask me how i want to fill it, colour BG colour etc...why i can't just delete the BG and make it transparent?and another thing, when you have the 2 colour selection (on the left side) the white and the black square, is there a way to make the bottom square transparent? (i suppose is the grey square with a red line in it)
I crop a picture and when I print it white lines appear on the print . When I print the uncropped version of the same picture I get no lines . How can I get it to stop.
I'm trying to make an image I have which has a solid background (and a few other details inside it) transparent? so I can still see behind the graphics in the image yet the background at the same time... I know I've seen it before where the image sort of floats above the background... But I don't know how to accomplish this in Photoshop.
I've started a drawing in an empty file with one layer (I have deleted the initial Background layer, then created a New Layer which contains the drawing). How do I save this as tga but with transparent background? ie. so that if I put the saved .tga file over another image, only the drawing shows, without the background around it.
I got Photoshop to make the background transparent on pictures of furniture. I am having problems because the background is so complicated. I've only tried selecting different parts of the background with the quick selection tool, and then deleting (after adding another layer), but I'm not getting good results.
I see others talking about the lasso, magnetic lasso, layers, masking, etc, but I don't know where to start. I need to learn quickly because I'm on a deadline, Here's one of the pictures I need to do: (one of the most complicated) All I need to keep is the table and four chairs in the foreground.
I have a .jpg file of a band logo with white text (bordered by sketchy black outlines) on a white background. I'd like to keep the text and border effects the same but make the background transparent and then save it as a transparent .png or .gif so that just the white text (with the black text borders still included) appears the same on my website no matter what the background color of the page is. Here's the image: URL....
I want to keep all the black sketchy outlines intact and I want the white text itself to remain white and not transparent, I just want the white background surrounding it to be transparent. I've tried selecting just the text with all the little lines and such of the text borders included so that I can make it into a new layer and then paste it onto a transparent background but I've been having trouble successfully selecting it...the way the text is written, I haven't had much luck using the magic wand or quick selection tools to properly select it.
Another (less desirable) option would be to fill in the white background with the background color of the page I'm going to be posting it on (hex color #1d1d1d) but filling it in with the paint bucket in Photoshop CS5 fills in the majority of the white text as well so that hasn't really worked either.
How to make a background transparent (invisible), but I can't find any on how to make an image see-through? I need to make the top layer picture some what see-through so that the image behind it shows up a bit.
I created my background as transparent but when I render my .mp4 or .mov 3D animation, it is black. I tried importing it into After Effects and it I can't get it to bring in all my animations I added in Photoshop? Apparently the engines are different now between Photoshop cc and after effects CC.
I have been using PS CS 5 for the past couple years- and I have it set so that the background is transparent- and I can see the folders I'm working from behind the images I'm working on.
Working with the grey background makes me feel like I'm working in a dark cave... How do I turn off the background color (I can see where to change it- but not turn it off...)
I need PS experts to teach me how to make a transparent image, not a background. I found a image on the website, but I've been tested many times and didn't figure out how it made like this.
the center flower is 100% transparent, but it still keeps shadow and embossed area. I used blend mode for testing, but everytime if I make it to 100% transparent, I lose everything, it becomes a flat transparent area.
I'm looking to use these images as forum sigs, how to remove the white background / make the background transparent? I would like to keep the text on the images if possible. If that makes it too much work, though, the text can be removed.
How can I make a dialog window with transparent background which looks like exactly like this: With transparent background, so the Aero glass color is white.

If you hover your mouse over the picture, you may see checkered patterns, which is transparent, so the Aero glass can see through the checkered patterns.
How can I do this like the Aero glass see through the checkered patterns above?
OK, I have this jpeg that I brought into PS. Picture a white square with a red ball in the center. Now you want to get rid of the white background and make it transparent. Simple, right? You delete the white, save and that should be it. When I then bring the art into Illustrator on a colored page, the white is still there. If I place the psd file its not....jpeg it is. I've done this a zillion times! What happened?*
