Magic Wand deletion


Recommended Posts

The magic wand works by selecting a contiguous region of pixels that are the same color (within the tolerance you set) as the one you click. If it's leaving a line around the figure, that's because the tolerance is set low enough to ignore those pixels; the image is "bleeding" color into those pixels, making them slightly darker than the white background you're cutting the image out of. I recommend "Cutting Out Images" (found here) for more information on the best way to eliminate that.

 

The Doctor: There was a goblin, or a trickster, or a warrior... A nameless, terrible thing, soaked in the blood of a billion galaxies. The most feared being in all the cosmos. And nothing could stop it, or hold it, or reason with it. One day it would just drop out of the sky and tear down your world.
Amy: But how did it end up in there?
The Doctor: You know fairy tales. A good wizard tricked it.
River Song: I hate good wizards in fairy tales; they always turn out to be him.

Something else you could try is downloading and using dpy's "AA's Assistant" plugin. Basically, it removes a thin line of pixels around the edges, leaving a smooth edge around the object.

No, Paint.NET is not spyware...but, installing it is an IQ test. ~BoltBait

Thanks! I went with this route, and it works great. Also some other cool plugins in that pack too.
