How to get rid of the Black

Hi,
I have uploaded an image to pixcentral (see url below) and wanted to ask the pros how they would (using PSE 5)
Get rid of the black (make transparent) in any part of the picture that is not part of a person. As you can see, parts of the arms and legs are as black as the rest of the image.

I have been trying various extraction tools and although I am getting better, I was wondering if there was an easier way. It would really be great if I could actually see your result (even if you only do a portion of it and post it back on Pixcentral (for example, the tennis player on the top left or bottom left).
Thanks as always for your help on this great forum.

Hi Bob,
You may have simply been an unfortunate victim of downloading an image from the web.
If you click on your link to open the image in your browser. Then go to the VIEW menu and select SOURCE (Internet Explorer) you should see a page that starts with something along the following lines:
If you see any words in the meta line that are likely to indicate adult content, this could be the reason why our web filtering system blocked access - even if the content is entirely suitable to family viewing!
It is my understanding that some people use the meta tags to add descriptors for the page so that search engines pick up on these (not to mention web filtering systems) in the hope that others users out there who search for these key words will be provided with a link to that page.
Thank you for clarifying though and best wishes with help from other users / contributors to this forum.

  • How to get rid of the black border around the artboard

    Hopefully my last question for tonight.
    I need to get rid of the black border around the artboard. The two images show my drawing lined up with the art board and then inside the artboard. The dark gray is not the artboard.
    As you see, the artboard has a black border. I need to get rid of it. It shows up in my project when my color key is green. The black won't go to transparent.
    So how-to get rid of the border? Thanks
    ***Update***
    I figured it out. View > Hide Artboards. Maybe this will help someone. Doesn't change the fact my spider looks like a tick:)

  • I dont know how to get rid of the black bars on the sides of my videos. The original clips dont have them but when i import them to fcp it puts them there

    Here's my final (and simple diagnosis) You have 4 x 3 footage that your are trying to screen at 16:9. This won't work.
    Artistically, you have three options:
    1.) Stay with the "black bars." What some of us call "Bat Wings," in the biz.
    2.) Do what some editors do and create a large "fuzzy" background to extend the edges...
    3.) Or transform / crop the image. (Or just use the "fill" option in the "Spatial Transform" section of the inspector
    But... You WILL lose some of the image

    What graphics card is installed?
    Have you looked inside to see if the interior is dusty?
    Is the graphics card dusty?
    If equipped, is the fan on the graphics card turning?
    Leopard uses the graphics card harder than Tiger, so weakness in the graphics card is more easily shown.

  • HOw to get rid of the borderline in the  render list item of the news brows

    HI,

    After removing thiese things, it should look like a normal html page .

    if coding required then which is the par file I need to modify
    thanks
    pkiran

    Hi PKG,
    the "GiveFeedback" and "SendTo" links are called "FlexUI" commands. Most of that stuff is highly configurable and naturally you can remove them in the KM Configuration at
    SystemAdmin->SystemConfig->KM->CM->UserInterface
    -> ... -> ResourceRnderer
    Your ResourceRenderer uses a CommandGroup. In this CommandGroup you can add/remove commands.
    For example un your case its the CommandGroup "NewsDisplayGroup"
    Kind Regards

  • How to get rid of the Login page in Portal?

    Hi Guys,
    I have a newly developed intranet portal project for my company which does not need login no more. I hope you can help me how to get rid of the login page in portal which is I know in every application you create, there should be a login. Is this possible that I can just simply type in to the URL address bar my application then it will no longer ask for any logins? Please help! Many thanks!
    Russel

    Hi Russel,
    You can give public access to pages, applications etc. Users won't need to supply a username/password then, while you still can hide some of the pages to authorized people.
    Check the access tab for pages and the manage tab for applications.

  • How to get rid of the "time out" when using DAQ AI in the example program

    I try an example file called "AcqVoltageSamples_IntClkDigRef" (Visual C++ .NET). It works great. However, if the program has not recieved the data, it sent out a timeout message. How to get rid of the "time out"? I cannot find anywhere in the code. Is this a property I have to reset somewhere else?
    Thank you,
    Yajai.

    Hello Yajai,
    The example program will use the default value for timeout, 10 seconds. To change this, you will have to set the Stream.Timeout value. I inserted this function into the example and set it equal to -1, and the program will wait indefinitely for the trigger signal without timing out. Please see the attached image to how this was implemented.
    I hope this help. Let me know if you have any further questions.
    Regards,
    Sean C.

  • How to get rid of the main text box in the back of the page AND move things

    I usually work in Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, and InDesign, but am creating two newsletter templates in Pages for a colleague, since it will be easier for her. But, for the life of me, I can't figure out how to get rid of the main text box in the back of the page that is driving me crazy. I just want a nice blank page that I can do whatever I want with. AND, I can't figure out how to select things so that I can move them, like shapes and text boxes. Some things seem to move fine, then other things just sit there. I am at the end of my rope!!!

    Hi, Dylan. Welcome to Discussions.
    If you're referring to the area where you just start typing when you open a new blank document, you can't get rid of it. But you also don't have to use it. You can insert text boxes and size and position them as you desire. Just be sure they're defined as Fixed on Page. When one is full and you want to continue it to another page (or to the side), click in the blank blue box on the lower right side of the text box. That will create another box and your overflow text will flow into it. Then position it where needed.
    Also, you can create a text box the width of the page and then set it for 2 or more columns.
    When you want to send something to the back and you may want to access it again later, just use the send backward command. If you send it all the way to the back, it will be behind the main text layer (where it will be safe from acvcidental movement) but you will have to click outside the work area and then drag the pointer to the object to select it.
    Hope this helps to get you started.

  • How to Get Rid of the Extra cents left on your gift Card balance?

    I would very much like some help on how to get rid of the 65 cents I have left in my itunes account, without having to spend it on something, or make a new account, or contact Apple. Please someone help with this, I'm sure many other are having trouble as well!!!!

    I noticed there is an extension which lets you clear the title of the current page or replace it with other text. This seems to work equally well in private and non-private windows, however, it doesn't appear to have an option to automatically do it in all private windows. Maybe someone can add that feature (the author isn't maintaining the add-on any more).

  • How to get rid of the SAP BPC "three globes" startup screen?

    Hi,
    I am trying to figure out how to get rid of the SAP BPC "three globes" startup screen when we start BPC. I do not want it to pop up.
    I looked at VBA behind the workbooks but could not find anything. Could not make the sheet invisible.
    Is there a way to get rid of the screen? This is the screenshot

    Re: How to change the logo, (3 Globes) on the launch page
    Posted: Mar 18, 2009 12:46 PM in response to: David Fletcher Reply
    OK then, now v7sp03 for microsoft has hit the shelves, you can change the logo !!!
    It is quite easy.
    Have the logo file ready in either BMP, GIF or JPG format.
    Put it in your "Server Install -> DataWebFolders[Appset]" folder (so where you keep your files).
    In ApplicationSet parameters, add the parameter COMPANY_LOGO and in the options type the name of the file you just put on the server.
    Now if you restart BPC for Excel, the second excel page that pops up should be showing your new logo or graphic (mine did).
    The use of the logo has been documented in the admin manual -> working with appset parameters
    Some tips.
    I wanted not to clutter the filesystem so i put my logo in the appsetpublications folder and added the path accordingly in the parameter (so now it reads appsetpublicationslogoname.jpg instead of just logoname.jpg).
    If you do not supply a name (only the parameter), your second Excel window (normally holding the graphic) will not appear. That could be an alternative too if you find that whole thing annoying.
    Hope this helps you build great BPC apps,
