Hiya Big Wink

Sorry but I am completely new to photoshop and I need some help please!

I have been taking some images for a website but when I put the images onto the computer, the background looks too grey and I need it to look completely clean white.

I have tried using the enhance facility on photoshop and it brightens it up abit but not enough for what I need Bawling

Can I remove the image from the picture, change the background to white and then move the image back onto it again? Or is there any other way of doing this? Confused

If anyone can help me please I would be most grateful!

Many thanks :P

Amanda Jane

Thanks very much for your reply but how do I do this?

What tool should I use to cut the image out of the picture? I tried to use the slicing tool but didn't have much luck with that! Confused

And how would I paste it onto a new transparent or white background?

Thank you Big Grin

Use either the Polygonal Lasso tool or the Magnetic Lasso tool to draw a selection around your image. You'll find both in the toolbar on the left side of the screen.

If you have only 2 or 3 images post them on here and I will do it for you.

I haven't seen the image but it sound like a classic Channel Mask to me.
