Hello,

I am trying to eliminate a background in PS cs5.5. from a portrait. I followed the tutorial - used the quick selection tool to select my area. When I hit the refine edge button, I get the circle with a slash in it, meaning I can't do anything. I don't know why this is happening because I'm going along with the tutorial exactly.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Uncheck the 'show original' option in the refine edge dialog.
