ok, i have a picture and i want to competely get rid of the background, kinda like some of you guys have as your icons. its kinda hard to explain but i think you guys get it...
i guess you could explain it as cropping the picture around the object you want and to competely get rid of the background. i tryed the background eraser, but that leaves it as white... i want it competely gone if thats possible....
sorry for the long and confusing post....
thanks

Do you want to blend it with another pic ? Are your talking about wanting the background to be "transparent" or everything be transparent except for your quad..... If you want to blend it with something (add it to another picture) then you can just use something like photoshop and it allows you put 2 pics together and only have certain portions of each picture show up

Hope that helps a little at least
