This will be probably the BIGGEST noob question on the planet, but is there an option in Jasc Paintshop Pro 9.0 to eliminate the entire background, while keeping the main picture intact? For example, look at this pic:In the example I have shown above, if I wanted to easily erase the background, words, etc. while leaving the Jeeves man, how would I do this? Also, realize that many pictures use a bunch of colors, and because of this it shouldn't erase the shadow around Jeeves. If you can't do this, or it keeps the shadow by default, then nevermind. Also, anything like the basic free form selection in Paint that comes with Microsoft computers I already know of, but keeping it steady while trying to only get what you want is next to impossible. If J.P.S.P. 9.0 doesn't have a function like this, does anyone know of a paint program that does? Thanks in advance.PS: I don't really use paint programs other then to save a screenshot or two, but I am interested in using it because I can draw free form pretty well on a computer using even the most basic tools. So I know I can accomplish something pretty good if I wanted, as I have before but it always takes me weeks to make a basic sig, or a few days for an avatar.

That is the tools I want to avoid using. With the lasso, you need to be precise in the movement, which is hard to do to extract everything but the main picture. As far as the eraser is concerned, the lasso is less time consuming then that, and we see why I don't want to use it in the first place. I want something that can determine what the main picture is (Or something similar) and can copy only that. Don't use the example I have laid out for you above, that is not what I wish to do it with. That was only to show you. What I have in mind is MUCH more complex then that pic above, lol.
