(note: some of my words may not make a lot of sense, but you'll get the gist of what I want to show you!)
Okay - it is a SUPER Quicky tut, but it adds a bit to what Granulated was sharing in his "choot".
The main thing I want to stress is DON'T EVER USE THE ERASER TOOL EVER AGAIN
EVER!!!
Unless you want to.
KEY SHORTCUTS:
"Q" - enter and exit QuickMask mode
"D" - sets background and foreground colours to default B&W
"X" - flips foreground and background colours back and forth.
Shift+ALT+Double Click on BACKGROUND LAYER = free layer
Layer Masking - that is the way into the 1990's, kids!!!
(as I've said elsewhere on this site, there is not just ONE WAY you should learn to extract stuff in PhotoSlop... my favorites are the
PEN TOOL, The EXTRACT "filter", and the method I've shown above. In many cases, an image may require more than one method to get everything you want extracted!

Yah
Using Layers/Defringe usually does it. So does Select/Modify...yep!
