Hello,
Often I need to remove background from photo/raster or vector. I wanted to know what is the most efficient way to do that. Here's how I do it if it's photo:
1. Use Rectangle Select or Ellipse Select to select areas around object to remove first.
2. Use Eraser to remove small areas of background until all around object is clean.
Sometimes I would select Fuzzy tool to delete areas with same color but in photo/raster images it's hard to target.
In vector file, I would no need to remove background selection by selection because Fuzzy tool can select background which happens to be of same color and I can remove background. Depends on vector too of course because with manually converted photo to vector the background would still have variety of colors from conversion.
Here's my current image that was converted to vector. I am trying to find a faster way to remove background.
What would be your advice?
