I have a few humanoid/robot images that I’m trying to edit by only taking the humanoid/robot figure from the image and than deleting the background. I don’t understand how to do this in Photoshop, so I’ve been doing it in another program ("Microsoft Picture It!" to be exact). You know, outline the figure with a selection tool, duplicating it, than deleting the background or the original image so I just have the figure by itself.
But the problem with this is that when I load the image into Photoshop for furthur editing and cleaning up, there’s a transparent outline around the image where the pixels begin to fade.
This is a problem because when I use the images in another program (Game Maker) there’s a line around the image where the color of the object blends with the background. If I have a red object and a white background, than the object has a pink outline around it.
So I was wondering if there was a way to easily remove those transparent pixels around the edge. Currently I’ve had to either use the Eraser tool in Photoshop or touch it up in Game Maker by hand, which can take hours to do when I have a bunch of different images with different parts. I’d rather avoid those hours if possible if there’s an easier way to get those edges away.
Does anyone know if there’s an easier way to remove those edges? If so– how?
