How to remove a background from an image with a body similar to the background color

Hello world!

New here so I hope I ask this in the right place

I used to use photoshop many years ago and get back inside. One thing with which I have a particular problem delimbing Fund images that are quite bright whites / have little white in them - normally I would use techniques basic as the background eraser or the magic wand, but due to the edges by a quite brilliant and mix a little in the back on the ground, I find it very difficult to cut the image.

I work with an example image is this yo-yo > http://yoyovillage.co.uk/img/c/iYoYo%20Steel_1200px_01.jpg

Basically, I want to remove the white background and also the reflection / shadow below while I'm just left with the body of yo-yo in the image (like this > http://www.yoyovillage.co.uk/264-home_default/level-6.jpg)

One option, I was advised might work using a layer mask shape and essentially make a copy of the image in photoshop layer and then use the settings of brightness/contrast to ensure that the yo-yo is a little more easily selectable, but this does not work either (and I'm a bit of a n00b when it comes to layer masks).

I was hoping someone here might be able to help - it may be that it's just not possible, but if anyone can say anything I would really appreciate it.

Thank you very much

  • How to remove an application from a device with the Profile Manager?

    I use iOS devices 9.1 in collaboration with Apple Configurator 2.1 and 5.0.15 Profile Manager. Configurator locks iPads and the Profile Manager is used for the distribution of applications. We are assigning apps in device that is a great feature. However, when I delete an application from a device with the Profile Manager, the application does not remove himself. The Profile Manager back the license and I can redistribute app for iPad one another even if the application is still installed and usable on the iPad first.

    Is this a bug? It seems that it should remove the app. If I delete the management profile in distance from the unit, it removes apps.

    Click on the gear box and then delete Apps and select the application you want to remove.

    Initially, I did what you did probably has been to select the name of the application, then press the 'less', who pulled out of the app in the list, but it has not removed the iPad, he just removed their license.  Through the gearbox and to remove it it removes of the iPad.

    You may have already thought of it, but I found this post unanswered after two months, and once I found the answer, I thought I'd put it here.

  • How to create a vector from an image with a white line

    I need help as soon as possible.

    I have a design that I made in Photoshop CC 2014 and I need to make a vector. I was told the best way to proceed was to file in Illustrator CC 2014, which is what I have, but every guide I followed takes off the white line that goes around the text and extends beyond the tree. I need this white one to be there and it's so frustrating that I can't find a guide that will help me keep it there!

    Please, if anyone has the solution, please describe in DETAIL. , I have included the image, I work for example. I put a background black on it so you can see the white line which must remain outside the vehicle. The black background will not be outside the final vector.SYH_3kx3k.jpg

    Matt,

    According to me, you can do the following:

    Come back to Photoshop and create black background like a rectangle, then the raster work is separated into two:

    The one with the red/white text on black background and the other with the tree on black background.

    Image then trace each and expand each track and then line them up by the outermost paths (tracing the outside shape of the black rectangles that must be identical).

    Then take it from there, with full marks.

  • How to remove a Word from the default dictionary of firefox?

    How to remove a Word from the default dictionary of firefox?
    If I wanted to remove the word 'dog' or 'and' for example

    There may be a range of reasons for wanting to do this, including the deletion of the words you use rarely as similar to other common spellings used words for example. "minute" and "Minuet", delete the words that you find personally offensive, or removing words that, because of linguistic or cultural background, you would not consider words at all.

    Note that I'm not asking how to remove my 'dictionary' words, words that I added myself.

    Hello

    I talked to a few people and I think I'm able to help you with this.

    There are two dictionary files, the default that comes with your version of Firefox and personal 'custom' that you create yourself with phrases and words.

    If you want to change the personal;

    1. Copy Subject: support and paste into the address bar.
    2. Next to the profile folder, click the marked File Show
    3. Find the file persdict.dat. Rename a text file, open, modify, re save it as persdict.dat and replace.

    If you want to change the default dictionary, it could be more of a problem and a lot more technique to do. I would recommend that you look at the problem differently and consider filtering of pages based on inappropriate content using Add-ons such as ProCon Latte Content Filter.

    I hope this helps, but if not, please come back here and we can look at another solution for you.

  • How to remove a book from Mac or iPhone?

    How to remove a book from Mac or iPhone?

    Are what version of iBooks you on Mac?

    I read a bunch of discussions on trying to delete apps and books from iTunes (where books used to be), and the responses dealing with the last iTunes and iBooks basically say the same thing: can't delete anything. At least, you can't delete the old sense of deleting the file completely. Now when you 'delete' something, you're really just hide the view.

    I just tried to remove a book from the last iBooks (in El Capitan on my iMac) and the fine print in the dialog box has said very clearly that I take away the book of view, but it would still be redownloadable of the cloud. (I hope that cloud of it's Apple, not mine.) I want to manage what is in my cloud, and I don't want that it is cluttered with things that I "deleted".)

    In theory, I don't see Apple. You can just save space on a device, but be able to find the book later. But this isn't the case with me. When I delete something, I want to TAKE forever. Case in point, the book that I just deleted was one in iOS 8.3. Why I ever would want to get that now that I am using iOS 9?

    Apple seriously needs to rethink its approach to this issue. Maybe needing a second choice to confirm if you're trying to hide something or remove the cloud, or really, really want you permanently gone. But Apple is not choice. Never ever going to be I guess.

  • How to remove a computer from my working group under XP and Windows 7?

    We have recently implemented a network composed of our three computers (2 XP) Home Office and 1 Windows 7 to share files and printers.

    However, we found its malfunction and could not share what we expect.  One of the reasons, we can see it, could be one of the computers have been infected.

    So, we try to remove this computer from the working group.

    However, no matter how hard I searched on Internet, there is no way to remove the infected computer's existing working group.

    There that experts can help us?

    Thank you very much!

    Hello

    You cannot remove a computer from a working group, but you can change the name of the working group.

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/295017

    http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/51711-workgroup-name-view-change.html

    But that will not necessarily mean that they are not accessible by other computers on the network, or it will necessarily make the other less likely to be infected through this PC computers.

    The only way to "withdrawal" of a computer on a network is to unplug the network cable or remove the name of the wireless network.

    If you are concerned about a possible infection, you must get the malware to day and scan for malware protection.

    However, I suspect it's more likley your problems are caused by the lack of knowledge in the topic network different Windows operating system. This can help...

  • How to remove an item from my desk top which I no longer use

    How to remove an item from my counter top who no longer need. I have windows vista home premium and internet exployer 9

    Hi elsie,

    Right-click on the shortcut, the program, or folder, then click on remove.  That's all.  If this does not work, try to use one of the following free products to remove the file/folder/shortcut: Unlocker to: http://www.softpedia.com/get/System/System-Miscellaneous/Unlocker.shtml or file Assassin http://www.malwarebytes.org/fileassassin.php these programs often work when the functions of removing normal do not work correctly.

    If it still does not work, try a clean boot (Vista and W7) http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135. If you delete the file, then the problem was that there was a conflict or it cannot be deleted because it is run.  Once don't forget to reset your system back to the normal state, as described in the procedures. If the problem occurs in clean mode then just restore the system to normal and reboot - this solution will not work. If you are using XP, see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/310353 and http://support.microsoft.com/kb/316434.

    If this does not work, then start safe mode and try to delete the component of office from there (assuming it to be displayed).  If this does not work, you will need to log in as an administrator and try to delete the item in Windows Explorer in the C:\Users\\Desktop folder for this user and perhaps also any user originally installed the software (perhaps the administrator account).  It may be necessary to do both clean or Safe Mode boot mode (and using the extraordinary remove programs mentioned above as well).

    I believe one of the above will work (and hope the answer is one of the simplest at the top rather than the more complicated to those who follow).

    If you want to remove the underlying program that applies an executable or shortcut icon, go to Control Panel / programs and features.  Find the program is no longer you want, right-click on it and select delete or uninstall or delete (all that appears) and that should also remove the program and probably/possibly the icon at the same time.  Be careful here if - because if you upgrade the program, remove the program related to the icon or folder, if he got somehow placed on the desktop instead of Program Files (unless completely separate program updated as shown in programs and features - so you see both an old and a new version) could cause problems with the new program.  In essence, don't forget when you delete what you really want to delete and it removes this and nothing else.  I recommend the creation of a system restore point before you do.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!
