[Photoshop] I want only the foreground and not the background.

So I use the wand tool, and then I select --> inverse. What is the next step?

What I want to do is, i want to save it as an image JPG file, but with no background. So is only the foreground subject.

So, what is the professional way of doing it?

Tried using the 'transparent' background content, but it will not work.

Thanks. thumbup.gif

Thanks dudes.

I have another question, but I can't really remember the steps.

After I use the wand tool to select, then Select --> Inverse

Afterthat, make new path or something like that. Where I can adjust the points of remove some of the points to make the outline smoother. Now the image that I crop out somehow look abit weird and so unprofessional because of the rough outline. sad.gif

Any of you know how to adjust the points?

I seldom use the pen tool in Photoshop, notice that the pen tool is different compare with Illustrator. sweat.gif
