Photoshop :: Remove Background When Image Is Similar Color
Oct 19, 2012
I have an image of a dog on a white background. I've tried several methods to remove the white background, but the dog is a beagle and has some white fur. There are places where it is almost indistinguishable where the fir ends and the background begins (on his neck). What is the best method to remove the background?
While I've used Photoshop a lot, I am not formally trained, so need input on what tolerance levels, etc. should probably be. I've inserted the image. Haven't purchased it yet because I'm not confident I'm going to be able to remove the background.

I have Pro7 and I am trying to edit a graphic. I want to remove the background color (white), or pop out an image.
In my old program (not xara) I could just click on the area/color, it turn pink and then click finish it would erase. Is that possible with this program?

I remember seeing a post about a plugin which allows you to remove the background from an image...
Unfortunately, I don't remember the name of the plugin....
Or if you can point me to a Tutorial that deals specifically with removing a background colour from a complicated image i.e. an image with a complicated outline...

I want to select a specific color from within the image, and change all similar colors within that image to a different color. In other words, after using the Color Picker Tool to select a color from the image, I want to take the selected color (and everything in the image that is equal to or similar in color), and change them all to a different color.
I tried using the Path's Tool to create an outline in the image, and changing colors that way, but it changes all the other colors in the selection I don't want to change. I just want to change all colors in the image/selection that are equal to or similar to the selected color. How do I do this?

Reference tutorial=> Remove Photo Backgrounds with the Background Eraser {URL]
a) I follow the tutorial above to remove backgrounds. However, the background has similar color than picture (in this case "white" - picture attached - FIG_2). So, when I use "background eraser" tool, it erase part of my picture as well. So, how to handle it properly?
b) The tutorial was usefull to other image that has different backgound color (FIG_3 attached). But using other software (Gimp) I could just take the transparency index (color=> color to alfa) with "one click" without the request of erase background manually. So, is there any similar way to do it easily in Paint Shop?

I scaned an iron on pattern. Now I want to remove the background color which is white. I thought I could use the magic eraser tool. It does a good job for most of the project, but I have to click on every small area. The reason that I want to do this is to being able to print on any color card stock. Is there another way of doing this.

I have a picture, and I would like the background of the image removed so that it looks like a typical sort of passport photograph.
It is low quality - taken off a webcam. It is a SMALL picture.

i'm doing a deal for an airsoft dealer(alot like paintball), and he wanted me to put some guns in the background, but he wanted me to keep his red to black gradient as the background. So I decided I needed to learn how to take out the background from an image. I have already learned the magic eraser thing, just how do i crop it?

I am very new to the photoshop world and am trying to remove an image from its background ( as a stand-alone) and save it. Is there a way to do this in Photoshop CS6? I have looked at tutorials but only found how to remove the image but not how to save the image as a stand alone with no background.

I have taken a series of pictures in a light box with the aim of using them in a school recipe book we are making and selling for charity. I'd like to try and remove the background of one image in particular. The image is of a plain cupcake in a white liner taken on a white background. My aim is to use the image on either a white page of a pastel tinted page with the recipe listed at the side.

I already know how to remove backgrounds from images, and create a transparent background. However, I need to be able to use the resulting image in another program called Scratch. And as far as I know, it does not accept .tiff, .pgn, .psd or gifs.
How do I completely remove that background so that it doesn't show up white in other programs when I save it as a .jpeg?

I have 1 picture with a blue background and a metal steel basin. I would like to remove the background and change the color to white.
Background is a material so it's not all perfectly the same color, very slight different shades of blue in the picture. The tutorials say outline it but this is a circular metal object. I tried using the circle tool but I can't get it exact and there seems to be no way to select a circle.

I have an image that has a white background. I want to change this background to be transparent.
I can of course select everything around the image and delete it, but the pixels near the edge are a combination of a colour and the background colour. I want to be able to change these to the colour semi transparent (ie remove the background colour portion of the pixel). Is there some easy way to do this?

I need to remove the background image which is visible through a stained glass window and replace it with a soft plain background (simulating an ambient light)
I don't really want to artificially recreate the lead grid design and wondered what's the best technique (masking or otherwise) to preserve this detail? I am considering clone stamp, intelligent fill, masking etc. but first I need to create a source of the grid to use.

I intend to make a signature to be inserted in digital documents. I signed in a paper and scanned that. The resulting image (attached) has a "paper color/texture" background I would like to remove, maintaining the blue ink from pen and black ink from computer character.

I have an image that has a lot of small areas of a solid black. I'm talking hundreds of areas, which I could go and individually select them all, but I was wondering if there was a way to use something like the Selective color tool, but instead of replacing the color with another color, to replace it with the clear background.

I'm looking for a technique for removing the background from an image similar to the way noise canceling headphones work.
Prior to shooting the portrait, we took a picture of the background and then, without moving the camera, took the portrait so that we were left with two images, one with and one without the subject.
Noise canceling headphones cancel sound by emitting a sound wave that is the exact opposite of the sounds they pick up from the outside. I'm wondering if there is some technique that could be used to make all pixels in the background a specific color (by mixing with its "opposite") to then improve the functionality of the fuzzy select or select by color tools.

I have a basic image and I just want to remove the background and be LEFT just with the image (i.e. No white background).
I have opened the image with Gimp and on this image I was able to "add alpha channel" which I believe needs to be done. Do I need to do anything after I add the Alpha channel?
This is what I did next:
The image is 100% and background 1.1mb. Select Fuzzy tool and position cursor over the background and click. The image and the image background have the moving dashes going around them.
Next I hit the delete key and the background goes checkered. Still there are the moving dashes around the image and the background outer square. Next I hit autocrop and I am left with a reduced checkered background around the image.
My question - what do I do from here. I just want the image with no background what so ever; also is there anything I need to do with saving too.
Previously I have saved this and when I go to use the image it appears to be much the same as the original with a white background.

I managed to create the Illustrator image I want & now need to take this image & use it in another application. However, regardless of which way I attempt to export - jpg, tif or png, I'm still getting the (white artboard) background, which I do not want. I attempted to create another box & blend the background to the background of the other application that I am using, but it's still apparent.
Also, with some conversion, my image became distorted or changed the image colors a little bit.
What's the process to remove unwanted backgrounds from Illustrator images? Here's some samples.

What's a good way to refine a selection when it's a similar color to the background? I have a photo of a dark skinned, black haired person in a white hoodie against an off-white background. I got a pretty good overall selection with the Quick Selection Tool; then I went to Refine Edge.That worked good on his hair, but it made the edge of the white hoodie blotchy, as if it had worn part of it away.

How do you select an object with a complicated background. For instance if I want to select a pine tree in forest and the tree is in the foregrond and there are trees of the same color in the background, I have found it hard to select because of the similar colors...all of the tutorials I have seen all have a single color back ground ie a girl with hair and doing a refind edge is pretty straight forward....but how do you do that with a busy background..(for instance ) I want to select a pine tree with all of it componets and plant it in the middle of the desert.
