Documents can be a pain when it comes to pasting images.
Think about having a signature on an electronic resume or a title for your
blog. Websites do not always give you the best tools and sometimes you have to
do things on your own. This is where software comes into play.
I use adobe Photoshop for these tasks, but I suggest
beginners use adobe Photoshop Elements. Elements can run you about $129 CDN but
it is about $670 cheaper than Photoshop. Both are Mac and PC compatibility
(please check system requirements before purchasing the product to check if
your computer is compatible). Before starting the tutorial, you should know the
different file types. The one we will be focusing on is Portable Network
Graphics (PNG or png).
This file type allows you to save an edited image with a
transparent background. I find PNG files to have higher quality than JPEG but
lower compatibility with some devices. The following steps are what I took to
get my friend Erin’s blog title up and running without a background. Check out
her blog here.
