Remove transparent canvas/background from behind image

Howdy,
Is it possible to remove the transparent background (see pic) of the canvas so that all I export as an image is the asymetrical rock? I want to use the rock as a button in flash and need it to be the exact shape of the rock without the 3 transparent corners (bc the corners are then perceived by fla as part of the button, so then I get this square button instead of asymetric rock shape button). Sorry if this is posted elsewhere.
Thanks for any help you can give!

Nice flame silky...
Yes I am well aware of transparent means. And yes, I saved the file as a .png, retaining transparent qualities.
Here, I'll type slow so you can understand...
Again (as I stated originally) the issue is this...when I import the .png into flash the png file comes as a square. I don't want a square the 3 transparent corners get in the way. Yes the 3 corners arrowed in my originaly querry are transparent, BUT flash registers the image as a square, not as the asymetrical rock shape, which is what I want. I've included another pic so you can see the problem (see below).
If you click the pic, it will enlarge and you can see the blue lines (top & right) which are the border for the imported .png. Again, I want to import this rock image solely as the rock with no transparent tag alongs. Can this be done or not?
Kindly share, or let someone with more patience and understanding answer my questions.

I need to know how to remove the color background from an image PLEASE

Hello, I'm trying to remove an image within an image so that the image removed stands alone as its own file.

^ So from that image, I'm trying to remove the black background so I only have the skull with hat image (and the bones behind it of course).
The reason for this is because I want to use it on a shirt, and that black background image does not match the shade of black on the shirt.
The file above is the image I wanted to use, with a size of 2874 x 2000. If anyone could show me how to do this I would greatly appreciate it

Just use the MAGIC WAND TOOL, and select the black area(s). Hit the delete button... and you're done

Is the logo in a pixel layer surrounded by white?
You could make it a layer if it isn't already, then use the Layer Style dialog and set the Blend If parameter so that it will make light colors transparent...
You can composite it into a web page with transparency by saving it as a PNG file, as JJMack has noted.

How do you remove the background from an image

how do you remove the background from an image thathas a white background?

First, change the background layer to a normal layer if needed, by dragging the padlock to the trash can.
Then use the quick selection tool or magic wand tool to select your background.
Now you can either delete the background, or click the icon at the bottom of the layers panel that looks like a circle inside a square. This icon will convert the selection to a mask.
The advantage of the mask is, it is non-destructible. In that you can change your mind at any time. Whereas deleting pixels is permanent once you close the file and there is no duplicate files. (A way around this is to make a duplicate layer and hide it. But that does make the file larger.)

Is there a way to remove the white background from clip art

Is there a way to remove the white background from clip art?

And replace it with what? transparency? You'll need to work in a format that supports that like png or psd. So you'll need a good editor too.

How do I remove the white background from a drawing

I have Elements 10 and I have scanned in a drawing and need to remove the white background from the drawing. Can someone please help me with this?

Double-click the background layer to make it a regular layer.
Use the magic wand and click in the white (experiment with tolerance level), make sure contiguous is NOT checked.
Press Delete.

How do I completely remove a background from an image & keep it as a .jpeg?

Hi , I already know how to remove backgrounds from images, and create a transparent background. However, I need to be able to use the resulting image in another program called Scratch. And as far as I know, it does not accept .tiff, .pgn, .psd or gifs.
How do I completely remove that background so that it doesn't show up white in other programs when I save it as a .jpeg?

Jpgs don't support transparency. It looks like Scratch may support pngs and other formats, but the transparency may not come through. From what I've read, you may have to use the transparency brush in Scratch to achive what you want.

   icon = new ImageIcon(AuthScreen.imagePath);

          g.drawImage(icon.getImage(), 0, 0, d.width, d.height, null);

How to remove a particular gadget from windows7 image

sir how to remove a particular gadget from all other existing gadgets in windows 7sp1 image, can we do it by DISM?

Hi,
If the above method doesn't work, you can try pre-configuring sidebar gadgets using unattend.xml, which can be used to override Sidebar default settings.
To disable Windows sidebar gadgets when windows load, you can configure this following in your unattend.xml.
<unattend xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:unattend" xmlns:wcm="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WMIConfig/2002/State">
<settings pass="oobeSystem">
<component name="Microsoft-Windows-Sidebar" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" language="neutral"
versionScope="nonSxS" processorArchitecture="x86">
<SidebarOnByDefault>false</SidebarOnByDefault>
</component>
</settings>
</unattend>
For detailed information, you can refer to
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/sidebar/archive/2007/03/08/pre-configuration-of-sidebar-gadgets-using-unattend-xml.aspx
Or try customize windows using sysprep tool

How to remove background from raster image?

Hello folks.
I am trying to incorporate some business logos into a brochure I am creating. The problem is, most of these logos have a white background. How can I remove this and make a transparent background?
Thanks!

To remove and replace you have to use one of the selection tools first. I like the Quick Selection Tool. Depending on the contrast between the logo and background, and the degree of perfection you require this may need to be tweeked a little. Tweeking can be done like this. http://tv.adobe.com/watch/the-russell-brown-show/masking-basics-in-photoshop-cs5/
The pen tool is a lot more accurate, but does have a learning curve.

Easiest way to remove background from an image

Hello-
I am using Adobe Photoshop CS3 Extended and I am working on trying to select a portion of a photo to use as a watermark. The photo is of a racecar in the foreground and I want to exclude the background (which is the road). Of the selection tools I really like the Magnetic Lasso tool to get in close on the objects edges but sometimes it selects areas I don't want. Does anyone know how to adjust the magnetic lasso tool once you have it all the way around an object? I've also tried the Magic Wand tool but found I couldn't drag it into a new document so that didn't work. I just need to find the easiest way to accomplish this task. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for your help!

>I just need to find the easiest way to accomplish this task.
<br />
<br />The pen tool is not likely the fastest way to isolate the car from the background but it is certainly the most accurate. Learn to use the pen tool; you will not be disappointed.
