MarcB Posted June 1, 2022 Share Posted June 1, 2022 What is the fastest way to extract a certain part of a photo? In the photo attached, I would like to extract the playing dogs, eliminating the background and turn them into silhouettes. Using the magic wand takes a lot of time. Any way faster of doing this?

MarcB Posted June 1, 2022 Author Share Posted June 1, 2022 I'm now thinking of adding a layer, trace the dogs with the line tool and then fill that up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tactilis Posted June 1, 2022 Share Posted June 1, 2022 Depending on the image, I often do the foreground extraction using AI driven https://photoscissors.com rather than the Paint.NET tools. Your photo took just a few seconds. It needs a bit of cleaning up around the right hand dog's legs but that could have been done with the Erase Markings tool - or afterwards using Paint.NET. Explore the Photo Scissors tools at the top left and three adjustment tabs on the right. I normally paste the resultant image as a new layer above the original image in Paint.NET and make any final adjustments there; for example by cloning from the original image if necessary.

Pixey Posted June 1, 2022 Share Posted June 1, 2022 You can also use https://www.remove.bg/ which is very fast: Quote How I made Jennifer & Halle in Paint.net My Gallery | My Deviant Art "Rescuing one animal may not change the world, but for that animal their world is changed forever!" anon.
