Quick answer
Use a mask to remove a background while preserving the subject. Review fine edges and transparency before export.
Applies to
For website owners preparing authorized image assets in their own licensed Photoshop installation. Photoshop runs on your computer and is separate from cPanel hosting. The preserved tutorial shows an older interface; this is not a certification of every legacy tool in current releases.
Steps
- Open an authorized source image and preserve an untouched copy. Confirm the required website placement, dimensions and any image rights.
- Create a selection or use the supported Remove Background workflow on a copy, refine the mask around hair and edges, then inspect it on contrasting backgrounds.
- Retain the editable source and export a separately named optimized web asset. Inspect the image at 100% and in the intended browser placement, including a small screen.
Check the result
Check the subject, edges, color, transparency, legibility and delivered file size. A clear editing preview does not prove the exported or uploaded image looks correct.
Troubleshooting and support
If a control from the old video is unavailable, use Adobe's guide for your installed version. For a website crop or display problem, check the actual uploaded file and theme placement before repeatedly editing the original.
Contact support from the owning account with the domain, product/version, exact error, time/time zone and redacted evidence. Exclude credentials, session URLs, payment details and private customer records. Confirm any separate application-support scope.
