That's cheating. I thought you had something interesting on how to erase the gradient. :mrgreen:

I use Paint Shop Pro to do the same thing. Lasso select then invert the selection and cut or delete.

Hi everyone,
Just a quick update on this background removal thing.
I had someone ask me how to get rid of the darkness in the window. “It looks kind of odd to have light shining on the floor when the window appears to be dark outside?”
So here is another method of removing the background from ecabinets jpg imabes.

I probably did not need another beer when I posted this. It is pretty bad when you slur your typing. “jpg imabes” ??
