ecptime Posted November 10, 2007 Share Posted November 10, 2007 Question, I am having difficulty removing background from image, i am using combination of Magic wand and eraser to remove unwanted backgroundsand make transparent, however I am noticing that the edges of my remaining image are jagged and not very smooth. I used the Guasian blur and feathering tool tool smoth out the edges but I find the image looses the edge detail and does not look defined, is their another method of smoothing out edges, perhaps a plugin or an alternate method of removing background that does not produce uneven edges? any help would be appreciated Thanks Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panhead Posted November 10, 2007 Share Posted November 10, 2007 well the feather helps when you have a transparent image on top of a background image a lot of people prefure to have the edges blend in as for removing backgrounds, you have the right idea, but there is a tutorial http://paintdotnet.forumer.com/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=3172 Quote My deviantART iGraphix ~96% of teens won't stand up for God.
