Shoutout to SharpGhost for having a white background in his signature which looks weird on the dark theme.
Additionally, you can select the picture excluding the transparent background by control-clicking on the layer image. Then to give the image a better cut, you can use the feathering and refine edge tools to make sure you got rid of the entire background and so that there is no white outline remaining.
- Open up PhotoShop and open your image of choice. I'll be using the picture in Sharp's signature.
- 2. Zoom in/out of your image as necessary, and then select the Magic Wand tool from the toolbar.
- Using the Magic Wand Tool, click on the area of the picture that you want to make transparent.
- Once you have the area selected, hit the delete button on your keyboard and it will delete the selected portion.
- Now you can go ahead and save the image. Make sure to save it as a PNG, as that will allow for it to actually be transparent in the areas you deleted.
