I got a t-shirt that I am trying to capture the graphic from. I scanned the shirt, and tried the magic lasso and the magic wand and various tools. I couldn't seem to capture the whole graphic so I "cheated" by using the magic lasso (?) tool to delete the background pixels. I got a nice clean image, unfortunately, I also deleted pixels from the image. How do I fix this? I thought to make my 'new' image transparent and place it over the old image to see where to replace the pixels...any ideas?
Thanks

Duplicate the layer, offset the new layer by a few pixels up and left or right and then select (make a selection of) the lower layer and delete the unnecessary part from the top layer, you might want to move the top layer to the bottom after selecting and deleting.
