You ever try using the pen tool to cut them out and them changing the path to a selection? That'll give you a nice vector-based edge that's VERY clean.

It's an either/or situation. They taught us to use the eraser in school, but I found it quicker using the pen tool and then changing the path to a selection. If that seems quicker to you, you might want to give it a try.

HA! I was thinking about sending that to him in a PM but I thought anyone else who used Photoshop might find that useful.

It's all these l33t skillz, I guess. HAHAHA!

[QUOTE=Summo]I don't use either tool to cut people out. In the avatar case I designed the background first so they would all be the same then I layer the pic over it and use the eraser tool to cut them out. I like doing it that way because it gives a nice anti-aliasing edge that looks much cleaner.[/QUOTE]

Hi Summo............glad to finally see you post. Thanks for all your hard work on the graphics. Hey you should have your own special Avatar and not have to wear the dreaded "yellow" cap..........

Good idea monk81, Summo definitely should have his pick.
