I use CS2 and only use it to convert photos or do the very basics (for ads I create). Sometimes I do use Photoshop to create the ads. I wish that I could say that I was an expert but I probably know only 5% what I need to know. However, there is a function that I would use all the time if it was available and was wondering if CS4 makes it easier to do the following:
I very often need to take the background away from a person. When I have searched Google to see if there is an easy way to do it, the only examples show a solid color background. That is not what I need to know. What I need to do is take a person out of a background without having them look like helmet heads. So often I receive camera-ready ads with photographs that have been revised. The creator uses the lasso tool and cuts a person away from the background and the head looks like a helmet. Does CS4 (or, for that matter, CS3) have an easier way to do that as compared to CS2?
