Photoshop :: Background Tranparent

Jun 8, 2008

I have an image with a white background and I want to make the background tranparent for use on the web. Please can someone give me step by step instructions on how to do this, as when I try I get nowhere. I open a new document and then I open my image and try to drag the subject on to the new document but the subject, although it does moves about, won't let me place it on the new document.

Also, the layer palette just shows one layer called index.

Photoshop :: Resizing A Tranparent Background Picture

I am trying to insert a tranparent background picture onto another picture and can do this just fine, but does anyone know of a way to re-size that picture once it has been inserted. I would have thought that Photoshop would have allowed that ability,

Photoshop :: Icons - Creating A Tranparent Background?

Nov 1, 2005

I have a bunch of icons made for PC's that I'd like to use on the Mac. When I download the icons and unzip the file most come with two icons. An ico and a png image. Originally I could not get either to open in Photoshop so I got this little freeware prgm. (Icon Grabber) that converts icons to tiff files. Now I can drag it into PS and work on it. When I open it it shows up as having a transparent background. All is well. I then save it as a png so it will work on the Mac. All is well again and I can use the icon BUT it's showing up on the Mac as having a white background even though in PS it showed up ?as a transparent background. I have tried saving it to SuperPNG which supports and saves transparencies.

Photoshop :: Making Black Background Tranparent

Dec 16, 2005

I would like to make the black background of the image below tranparent so I can paste it on something else. I tried blending modes (the best were screen and linear dodge), but it would not look good on a white background. I do not want to use magic wand, because it would not look so natural and blended. Is there any way, using alpha channels maybe, to make the black transparent?

Photoshop :: How To Cut Image From White Background And Place On Black Background

Aug 24, 2011

I seem to be having problems when I lasso round a specific part of a photo taken with a white background and then try to add that part of the image to a plain #000000 black background.

I always seem to get a white outline around the image when I place it on the black background, even when its on ZERO feathered. I don't like using feathered as it adds a smudge round the outside of the image.

Photoshop :: 2 Pics - One With Only Background, One With Object & Background

Aug 12, 2008

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.

GIMP :: Cut Out Background From Logo To Get Transparent Background

Sep 16, 2011

I 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?

GIMP :: How To Change 1920-1080p Background Into 1920-1200 Background

May 4, 2012

I want to change a 1920-1080 p background, into a 1920 - 1200 background.

I don't want to re-size it or lose image quality, the background for this can be easily replicated through some simple editing (drawing strait lines with the paint brush tool, and basically filling in to expand the background) Is there a way to do this? Here is the picture I want to change:

[URL].....

I just want it so that the pin-wheel design extends outward as to make the entire image 1920-1200, rather then the 1920-1080 it is now. (without losing image quality of the center wheel.)

Photoshop :: Getting Rid Of Background

Oct 19, 2005

I'm a bit new to this, I have a photo of my daughter and she has long hair and it's a bit wispy at times, what is the best way to extract her from the background, wispy hair and all.

I've tried extract but it didn't work very good. I don't mind if I have to buy another program to interact with PS to make it work.

Photoshop :: Background For CS3?

May 1, 2007

Im on a MacBook Pro and I just installed Photoshop CS3. Its all fine n dandy, but the actual photoshop window bugs me. There is no background for the application. so if I'm working on something, switch to firefox to look at something, then switch back to photoshop I can still see the firefox window.

How can I add a background? I cannot stand this, It distracts my eye from the actual document.

I've look through the options and I cannot find anything, awhile ago I found some 3rd party mac software that added a background to any app, but I can't find it again.

Photoshop :: Background

May 13, 2008

I am creating an invitation for my wedding. All I am trying to do is place 2 images (family crests) on one page without them overlaping. I create a 'NEW' page with the U.S. Paper preset, then 'Place' one pic in the upper right, resize it to fill the top right corner, then 'Place' the other one in the bottom left and resize it to fill the bottom left corner. Problem is, the background of the second image overlaps the first one (white background). When I try to select the part that overlaps and cut it, it says I can't because it's a Smart Object. All I want to do is to be able to see the 1st image behind the second one. The images themselves would not overlap if they were transparent, just the white background of the images... I hope this makes sense... I need to be able to see-through the parts that overlap, since that area is just white background anyway!

Photoshop :: Tan Background- CS2

Mar 17, 2009

The background color of new image is coming up tan, though 'white' is selected. I've seen a few posts on other sites about this but there isn't a clear solution.

I've created a new rgb doc and selected white as the background color. The background shows as tan though the color picker shows the white rgb code. The color picker is also not visually displaying white in the pallet.

Photoshop :: How To Add Layer From Background

Aug 26, 2012

how do you add to a layer from another layer, for instance, the background?

There are TONS of explanations for how to take away from a layer or create a new layer (layer mask) but nothing on how to add to a layer once it's already made. I made this layer with the magic wand tool and now I simply need to add little bits in to the layer that the magic wand missed.

Photoshop :: Transition The Background

May 27, 2012

I have a picture of the sun behind a mountain, where I can see in black the mountain itself and then the colors of the sky. I have a larger background (I need it) and I need to transition the background so that it seems it is the same image as the sunset.

In other words, I expect that the background will not be completely black, but rather getting darker as I move away from the sunset, so that I will look like one larger picture. The image can explain it better.

Photoshop :: Dim Background Lights?

Mar 28, 2012

My problem is that in some of my family pictures, there are lights on in the background or bright windows behind the subject. Is there any way to reduce the brightness of ONLY these extremely bright areas without making the rest of the photo too dark?

I have searched for hours and can't seem to find anything that resembles my scenario, although I'm sure that I'm probably just not looking for the right thing in the right place.
