Cut out photo

Hi,

I was trying to cut out a photo so only the person and the background shows up but I realized I am really bad at it. I was using the free-hand tool but I don't have a steady hand. So I was wondering if someone could do it for me. If you can then...I just want the person cut out and make the background be transparent. If the background can't be transparent then you can make it white. Well I really appreciate it if someone helps me because I'm really bad at making graphics. Thanks

Here's the photo:

k well i did it, but it was really roughly done i'm sorry, i couldn't make it transparent due to making the rest of thre photo look really pixelly.

so its just got a white background.

the legs look kind of bad because i feathered them too much, and they look pointy, so if thats a problem let me know and i'll redo the photo for you.

the picture is attached.

Hey Ben_C,

Thanks so much for helping me out!!! The top part looks great but the bottom part does look a little too feathery and pointy. Not to sound rude but if you could do it again that would be great! If you can't don't worry. Thanks again!

haha, no worries, i agree totally with you.

give me till tomorrow to do it, cause i'm just workin on a few things now.

but i'll take more care next time i do it so it doesn't look so pointy.

i also noticed when viewing the attachment that my browser doesn't let me scroll so it minimises the image, if you want to view it a bit bigger, press F11

anyways i'll redo the image then post it back a little later =)
