A Pass photo? are you meaning a passport photo? I'm not sure what you want transparent. Is something like this what you want to achieve? but with a transparent background?

Hello Angelize,
Yes I mean a passport photo with a colored background, see attachment.
Thanks,
soet
you mean a bit like the attached?
its done with plugins on the basis that you don't want to draw form scratch - its not perfect, there is still a slight haze on the background, more tweaking may fix that or draw round the outside and subtract shape is more precise
the plugins used in order were
xero greyscaler - to make it black and white which makes removing the the background easier, need a highish brightness setting [this is one of the plugins Frances linked here: http://www.talkgraphics.com/showthre...239#post434239 ]
mehdi classic [supplied with xara] - to remove [now white] background
deformation filter > liquid colour > draw [supplied with xara] - to distort
after each plugin use you should make bitmap copy before using next
it remains a bitmap of course, if you need it vector you are going to have to actually draw it I think
-------------------------------
Nothing lasts forever...
ok, thank you Angelize I will try it.

...Um that last reply was from Handrawn not me He referred to a post of mine in the plugins forum.

Just a thought, you could try the line drawing filter supplied with Xara, or Photo to Sketch (Free) I think both would be bitmaps though. Like I said it's just a thought, whether either would fit your needs I don't know.

Never give up. You will never fail, but you may find a lot of ways that don't work.
Soet, the example you provided I would regard as an illustration, same for Frances, while the example made by handrawn is more of a caricature. Caricatures are recognisable by the comic exagerration of features in the face - physical features, expression, etc, often a large head sat on a small body. It's quite a skill to do a caricature well.
So, are you after a caricature or an illustration?
