 EMERGENCY PHOTOSHOP HELP 
		
		
		
		I have an image I need to use for our MA shirts but I need to remove the background.  Said background is one solid color and that color appears nowhere else in the artwork.  It should be an easy thing to do, but I can't seem to figure it out.  HELP!

 If I made the blue background transparent, live would be perfect.  But, I don't know how.

 open your image 
	<select all> <edit> <copy> <new> (It should default to an image size that matches what you copied) Select transparent background <paste> Now erase the stuff you don't want. If it's a solid color you can make it easier by selecting it with the magic wand before using the eraser.  | 
	
		
 Get a really talented Photoshop guru to fix it for you

 *wrong thread*  I'll read this one in a second... damned tabbed reading!!

 Be wary of the Magic Wand.  Sometimes, there are threads of that color running throughout random mixed up places.  I tend to go about it the old fashioned way, which tends to not take too long if it's gone about in a logical way.  Erase big chunks, then get down to the details. 
	But that's just me. There's probably something easier out there.  |
