TYSM but how can i change the background then xD?

[jondummie]

@darkXdracion Hi Xd

Once you have cut out and saved your image as a (PSD) you can insert it on to any background that you want . Example: Open Photoshop then go FILE open and pick a image (picture) from your pc. Once that is opend you go FILE & then find PLACE click and browse for the cut out PSD click open and it will be placed on to the new background. The background can be any thing you want . Thanks and good luck.

Can anybody please help me out? The first few times using the Magic Wand went perfectly, but now all of a sudden I can't see what I erased anymore. This is the same when using the eraser, the picture just stays as it was. However, in the miniature picture on the right I can see what I erased. But when I save the picture, it just stays the same. Can someone please help me? It would mean a lot to me.

Can i use the picture in CSS?

if you have already added the magic wand to the image, and you want to put that image on another picture, but you wanna get rid of the magic wand area so its invisible.

How do you do that?
