How to cut out a photo of a tree and place it over photo of a house. Photo Designer 7
Hi there,
Im trying to cut a photo of a tree and place it over a photo of a house so the house can be seen through
every twig and leaf, at the moment I can only move the tree with the existing back ground. I have PHOTO & GRAPHIC DESIGNER 7.
Kind Regards,
Mark

Welcome to TalkGraphics
Outlining a tree is very hard work and even if you are skilled, it might not look very convincing.
Unless you need a specific tree, go to http://www.cgtextures.com/ and look in Nature > Trees. You'll thank me. It is a free site unless you are a power user in which case there is a fee.

Cutting out Trees is even hard with a knockout tool (Please add a knockout tool to Designer 7!!!)
Here is a real software gem (free) for creating trees. It's meant for 3d objects but you can easily export an alpha png from your customized tree.

This tree is an alpha image. If you want to test it click on it and save to disk. Then open in xara. I found out that when copying to the clipboard somehow the alpha channel gets lost. (Opera Browser)
