How to make renders - Page 2

Hehe, I've tried the 'Magic wand' and 'eraser' technique first time also. But the technique isn't all that effective. It's time consuming and the results are never satisfactory. Unfortunately I don't think GIMP has a Lasso function.

The path tool is your best pick on GIMP. ^_^ It takes a bit of practice but the results are worth it.

I found this tutorial useful : Cutting out Renders using path tool.

Happy gimping. ^^

I use the magic eraser tool to cut most of the background out not all of it then magnify into the sig/pic and use a pencil 1 px to just make the pic look nicely and evenly cut but I'm sure there are easier ways this is just the easiest for me take me about hmmm 5-10 to cut a photo perfectly or almost

, and yea the magic eraser isn't the best tool but its my fav
