Hi, I’ve been playing with Photoshop CS2’s features and was very impressed... I wish had more photshop skills like some people here (grafx1’s Windows Vista box is awesome !!)... I have a wallpaper with a character in the middle having a very clear (and continuous) outer glow..., but it on a very bad background... Is there a way to easily extract this character on a transparent background without having to “magnetic lasso” him (which is a very big pain), Magic Wand doesn’t work properly (because the background is checkered and patterned so Photoshop can’t properly lock on the subject... Is there someway to make photoshop create a marquee selection around exactly the glow (using it as a guide..) ??? Please, can someone point me in the right direction...? Thanks, any help appreciated...
