picture using Gimp. I personally prefer doing it with the lasso tool when possible but I know that some prefer the paths tool (bezier tool in Inkscape) while some others try the best of their luck with the fuzzy select tool (magic wand). I guess it all depends from the type of background \/ image, the level of expertise you have with the software and your <a href=\"https:\/\/danielepais.com\/journal\/what-is-a-personal-brand\/\">personal<\/a> taste. Again some people I have talked to tells me that they are not even considering the lasso tool on a <a href=\"https:\/\/danielepais.com\/journal\/work-on-pc-from-home\/\">PC<\/a> using a mouse but like it on tablet. I am OK with it as I have a good feel with my current mouse and have learned <a href=\"https:\/\/danielepais.com\/journal\/create-your-own-reusable-elements-in-canva\/\">how to<\/a> achieve good results without the need for a digital pen and a tablet.

By choosing the invert menu you will select the area outside your selection made with the lasso&#8230;.so in other words you will keep anything except the background.<br \/>\nIf needed too you can recreate the shadows (like the example in my picture where the table casts a shadow) so that to keep the newly created image a bit more realistic. You can also add a new plain or gradient background if you like too.
