I'm in need of a tutorial detailing how to extract a transparent object (like a sheer fabric) from it's background so I can replace the background.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm new to GIMP and I'd like to know how to cut out or extract an object from it's background.
There's a fest being held at my college and I've been assigned to cut out the logo from the posters of the previous year (I've attatched a copy of it below). I've tried using the cut tool, the lasso and also the foreground selection tool. The cut tool and the lasso tool didn't work as the object is quite complicated whilst the foreground selection tool happens to coat the logo instead of the background. I've tried invert and it doesn't work. Is there any other way to extract the logo?

how to edit an "uneditable smart object" (Layer>Smart Objects>Edit) but can't get rid of the white background... I want it to be transparent. This is despite the fact that I've indicated transparent background in the New File specifications.

I assume that I need to make transparent canvas and transparent letters (lu) so that it takes the gray color of the fabric and not the white background and letters of my file but when I rasterize type, save and open it again I cannot edit.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a pillow bevel applied to a paint splatter brush image, and I'm having trouble with the shadows. I want to save this splatter as a transparent PNG. The problem is that a drop shadow effect is showing up when I save it this way. I think it's a "shading" setting rather than a true drop shadow, as there is no drop shadow set in the layer styles.
The shadow does not appear when a white background is applied. It only shows when the background is transparent. I've tried reducing the shading opacity in the bevel dialogue, and this does get rid of the drop shadow....the problem is that it also removes the shading from the paint splatter, making the image look flat instead of raised.
I am trying to add a new object to the decoration folder. I noticed they are all .png files, so I created a new png item with a transparent background ( with Gimp) and saved it in the same folder where all the other original ones are. It does come up in the list and I can add it to my video, but it changes the background to white, even though the original one has definitely a transparent background.

I have been having issues with using the Magic Wand tool in Adobe Illustrator as well as the lasso tool.
Basically, I am trying to put a small graphic into a new Illustrator file.
The first thing I tried to do is to use the magic wand tool. But I found out that this did not work on a jpeg image since it did not have any individual objects to select.
So I tried something new. I opened the file in Adobe Photoshop and used the lasso tool to select an area. Then I coped this area. Then I tried to paste it into Adobe Illustrator. But the background was not transparent for the pasted image.
How do I make the background transparent.
I made this small video to show what I am talking about: [URL] .....
I need to strip my current image of its background color so that the background color on my website goes thru my image. In other words I need a transparent background for my image.
I have create a new layer that is transparent, but the background color on my website does not go thru it. The background color of this image appears to be grayish not transparent.
i am trying to change the color of the background behind a picture and i can only figure out how to vary shades of grey. i try paint bucket and several other ways i can think of. when i try to change the color it switches right back to grey.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI know this is a simple task if you understand masks better than I do but I normally slave away with max zoom and an eraser until I get the image extracted the way it looks good. Unfortunately for this image its going to be blown up and when I look at it the girl appears like she has been eaten around on all edges by termites.

When I highlight the edges of the object, and click "preview", it shows the image but it is REALLY faint and it's all in black/white. Why wont it simply show the image the way it looks on the original? Why is it all fizzy and hardly visible?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've been playing around with colorizing black and white images, and it's mostly fine. Where I come in to problems, however, is when encountering a situation where something of one colour can be seen through something of another colour. For example:
This is very much the beginning of a rough draft, so I've not bothered being too precise with where I've coloured as yet, but I hope you can see the issue - the floor looks fine, the dress looks fine, but where you can see the floor through the dress, it doesn't look right at all.
At the moment, this is done by creating a separate layer for each colour, and setting that layer to "Overlay", but it doesn't matter what layer mode I use, I still encounter problems. Is there some technique I'm missing? I've tried playing around with the colours of the specific things - so, for example, changing the colour of the floor where it can be seen through the dress, but leaving it as it is elsewhere - but I've not found anything that produces satisfactory results, as yet.
Another related question is how is best to colorize photos like this. The method I usually use is to create a separate layer for each colour and then use a brush/eraser to paint in the part of the image I want coloured. I've seen tutorials, however, which say that you should fill a layer completely with colour and then use a mask to let only the bits you want to show through be visible. Is there any advantage to doing that? As far as I can tell, it achieves the same result, except that you can't then use Hue/Saturation to adjust the colour after the fact.
I am attempting to create screenshots from an old video game and one part of the game includes a semi-transparent overlay layer that I would like to extract into its own image. I am able to render each layer separately in the emulator I'm using, but the screenshot tool is only able to export the final rendered image, so the transparent layer, when rendered alone, still results in a screenshot where it has been merged with the game palette's background color. I have managed to get 2 different copies of the overlay image using 2 different background colors, but I don't know the transparency percentage on the overlay. Is it possible to extract the original semi-transparent overlay with its original colors and transparency levels knowing the original background color? I can get more screenshots with different background colors if that would work. Also, the overlay only has a 5-color palette, so it's not a terribly complex image. I'm attaching the images I have with the background colors included as separate layers in each.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a TIFF file of a scanned microfilm page of a very old manuscript.
The background of the black fonts is gray, and it makes the reading of the text very hard.
My question is: is there a simple way to extract only the black fonts of the text, or otherwise to brighten up the background?
I'm sure there's a way to do this but for the life of me I can't remember and can't find it when I do a search. I have an object that is comprised of several lines that are grouped together, and I want to fill the entire group with a fractal cloud 3-color fill. In order to do so, I am creating the fill as a background, and making the object transparent, but when I do that, all my lines disappear (of course!) but I need the lines in it for details. Basically I want to layer this object

is there any way to use data extraction and get the dimensions of the solid. Using dynamic blocks on 3d solid is not an option as far as i know. I tried using block with attributes and field which refer to a dimension line but it's too complicated and takes far more time than just check them by hand.
View 0 Replies View RelatedI was asked to cut out the background from a logo to make it transparent so the logo would look nice on a variety of backgrounds. I've been given a good quality jpeg file.
What I did was I selected (by colour) the background (white), inverted the selection, copied it and pasted as a new image.
It's all fine (the logo itself doesn't have any other elements) but there's still some whiteish/greyish outline around certain elements of the logo.
If I were to do it manually, it'd probably take ages. What would be the best way to accomplish it?
I like the 'Extract" feature for surfaces, where I get get the contours or boundary of a surface in PL form without having to explode the surface. I have not figured out how I can do that same thing for grading objects. So far I have been exploding grading objects and then remaking them. Seems cumbersome.

So, my question is related to handling the "history" pallet as showed in 2:50 tutorial. It seems the "undo" is applied to the first "selection" action, but I couldn't make as in the tutorial. My PSP version is X4 and the tutorial version is X2. I don't know if something has changed and I am unable to make it in PSPX4.

I wish to have outline/surface of those nonsolid 3D object convert or projection into 2D lines that can be use later.
For solid object, its can be projecting the surface by FLATSHOT command. But for nonsolid object, this command is doesn't work and showing nothing when I tried.
These nonsolid object probably copy/export from other software ie. some analysis software.
I recently saw on TV that someone had 2 nearly identical images - one with just the background, another one from exactly the same point of view featuring an object before the background.
He was then able to subtract the background so only the object in front remained. Is that possible with Photoshop as well? I have version CS3.
