Best Answer To Software Question
There are several ways to isolate an object from the background. The best is to use a selection tool, on P7 these are grouped at the top of the toolbox. If a tool has a black triangle at the bottom right of the box it has more options when you click on the triangle. Basically the easy way is to copy th background layer by dragging it to the new layer icon at the bottom of the layers panel. Draw around the face you want to keep, press Control + J to put your selection on another layer. Click on the Background layer to activate it and apply a Gaussian blur from Filter -Noise (I think!). Try a few different settings til you get what you want. The face on the top layer should be clear and sitting on a blurry background. If the edges are too sharp you would click on the Face layer and get a soft eraser, drop the Opacity to 20% in the properties panel, and soften the edge of the selection. If you want the face on a plain background then go through the steps til Control + J; then click on the New Layer icon, drag the new layer under the Face layer and use the paint bucket to colour it. If you want a square selection use the square marquee, top left. For an oval use the circle marquee. For freehand selections use one of the Lassoo tools. The magic wand is used on areas of flat colour.

Answer 1Quick mask is the way to go. Once you have your mask, do some Gaussian blur on it to smooth the edges.
Answer 2Take what u want and replace the entire backround!
Answer 3use select all then edit,then use the eraser or cut and paste the pict onto a different background
Answer 4The best way is to use the extract function, a much quicker but less accurate way is the magnetic lasso.
Answer 5I would say use the magic wand tool to take the background out. Make sure you copy the whole layer and do it on the copy so you still have the original. If you increase or decrease the tolerance on top tool bar this will help. All you can do is give it a go. I find experimenting helps me find my own ways.
