As technology advances, more and more tools are becoming available for manipulating images for various purposes. One of the most critical applications is removing the background of an image. This process is common in photography, graphic design, and web design. With Adobe Photoshop CS6, a powerful tool in image manipulation, removing the background of an image is an easy task with a wide range of possibilities. In this article, we will guide you through the steps required to remove the background of an image using Photoshop CS6.

Step 1: Open the Image in Photoshop CS6
Here, the first step is to open the desired image in Photoshop CS6. You can go to File, select Open from the dropdown menu and choose the image you want to remove the background from or simply drag the image into Photoshop.

Step 2: Select appropriate tool
Photoshop CS6 has various tools that can be used to remove an image’s background. The most common tools include the Magic Wand tool, the Lasso tool, and the Pen tool. For this article, we’ll focus on using the Magic Wand tool, which is easy to use for basic photo editing.

Step 3: Start using the Magic Wand tool
After selecting the Magic Wand tool, click on the image’s background you want to remove. The Magic Wand tool selects pixels with similar color hues and tones. If the selection is too broad, decrease the wand’s tolerance. The tolerance’s lower, the fewer selected pixels, and vice versa. To quickly refine the selection, you can hold down the Shift key while selecting other areas of the background.

Step 4: Refine the selection
After selecting the appropriate area of the background, refine the selection to include or remove any unwanted parts of the background. You can do this by selecting the Lasso tool or the Quick Selection tool and holding down the Alt/Option button.

Step 5: Cut the Background from the Image
Once you’re satisfied with the selection, cut the background from the image by pressing Ctrl/Cmd+X or going to Edit and selecting Cut from the drop-down menu.

Step 6: Save the Image
After cutting out the background, save your newly edited image. You can go to File and select Save or Save As, depending on what you want to do with the file.

Step 7: Add a new background or leave the file transparent
You can choose to add a new background to the image or leave it transparent. To add a new background, create a new layer and choose a color for the background. Create a marquee around the the entire image and drag it onto the new layer. You can also use existing textured backgrounds or gradients. If you want the image with a transparent background, export the file as a PNG, which will retain the transparency.

In conclusion, removing the background of an image may seem tedious, but with Adobe Photoshop CS6’s Magic Wand tool and other available tools, the process is made easier and efficient. The steps highlighted above are easy to follow, even for Photoshop beginners. Removing backgrounds from images is a crucial aspect of graphic and web design, and mastering this skill with Photoshop CS6 is highly recommended.
