[annivas1]

thank u

[erick103]

Awesome! I never knew how to cut out an image using this method.

No idea! I just used my pen tool!

Here's a quick question. Is it better to use the extract tool for certain things? Or is it all around good? Again, good vid!

[mclis650]

thank you very much for the help ;)

[F4O4U4R4S]

if i am extracting an image from its background and i want to bring the extracted photoshop image into illustrator, what format do i have to save the photoshop extracted image as?

And also i want the photoshop extracted image to have a translucent background but the background is white when i bring it into illustrator....... what am i doing wrong????? HELPPPPPP!

Finally!!!! Thank you so much!!!! Much easier than other methods.

@skoobbarnes1 erm,i prefer use layer mask,it more flexible and easy

[Xolin11]

i'm guessing it's better to work with than the lasso tool?

Nice dude, thx alot

[101591i]

pretty cool... but how do you but another picture in the back ground

[NancyA48]

It appears you are working on the "background" layer. How do you the brush so that it is a transparent color and you can see under to what you are going around? When I do it the green is so dark I cannot see through at all but I cannot find where to change the opacity of the brush. Great tutorial! Thank you

[little416]

[waltzergav]

[krazykam]

thats takes so long a much eassier way is to magnetic lasso around your picture edit copy and paste it on a new open background so easy plus you could do transparenct effect aswell
