    Default Removing backgrounds from pictures

    There are various services to help you remove the background of portrait pictures but I really like this one: https://www.remove.bg.

    EDIT:
    I guess I misunderstood the question. :-) But the site is great - it does it nicely.

    The main page on the site says it is free but under pricing there are monthly pricing plans and I do not see free option. Can you give us a little more information?

    Usually apps that say free, are free to try. They add a watermark that only goes away when you pay for the product.

    How times have changed. In days of old ten people would have described how to cut out objects from the background by drawing a shape to cut out the subject.

    The free service returns only low-res results. Their subscription scheme allows for HD images and the use of an API.

    I wonder how the program determines what is foreground and what is background.

    Isn't there a plugin somewhere that does this?

    If the color range is fairly tight, say sky, you can use the Photo Tool > Select Colors to Enhance.

    Or you can use magic eraser in Photoshop to remove the background.

    Or even the background eraser in Xara since this is after all a Xara forum.
