  • Helped me out a lot, thank you so much!

  • your awesome, you sound like microsoft sam XD

  • thank you very much!! help me a lot!!

  • great tutorial easy to follow thanks

  • Thanks man reallyyy helpful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • How can I use this to edit selections that are already made. For example, I have a rectangle that is selected (with the marching ants). How would I use the pen tool to cut out part of it or add to it.

    I know with the polygonal lasso tool you do this by holding ALT when you make the selection, but I can't find a key that does it with the pen tool.

  • Thank you! Finally someone with a good tutorial to show me how! :D

  • Thanks. ^^ But I've got a question: how to make a copy from the selection? Not to remove the background, but to create a new layer from the selection? :/

  • i tried this and damn man wooow.. works great!!!!!A BIG THANK YOU!!!!!XXX

  • why not using the quick selection tool?Isn't that much faster and easier?
