I do not remember how to select only part of an image so that the background disappears. For example: I have a clip art picture of a dog set against a doghouse. I want only to get the dog as a selection and then copy it into Word on top of a yellow box. I have tried doing a clipping path but it doesn’t work. Most probably because I don’t have a clue what I am doing. I have reread 4 of my school books but they assume I can remember how to make paths, save them and do a clipping path (if that is what I should do) I have been out of school for eons and can’t remember how to do this. What I need are instructions saying: First do this, then do that, then do this, etc. I am using Photoshop 6 (win 2000)although I have Photoshop 7 (Win 98) at home (in case you think one is easier than the other).
So can anyone tutor me on the step-by-step procedure I should use to remove the background from a clip art picture and then copy it into Word as a stand-alone piece of art?
Thanks for any help!
