re-creating image

I have a fellow tinter that is looking at doing some promotional things and his logo is not a transparent image so the white background is a pain for him...

I have not a slight idea of how this would be created or re-created or made transparent..

Anyone?

As cool as that looks, its not really a logo. To recreate, you'd need a 3d software program like Maya, 3d Studio max, but would be a lot easier to make the background transparent using the magic wand and the polygon lasso tool. A bit of feathering and you're good to go.

If you or your friend has Photoshop, just make the make the background into a layer, then click on the white area with the Magic Wand tool, check for a clean selection and then hit delete. You should end up with something close to my attachment.

I used a tight tolerance setting for the magic wand of 5 and then did a quick touch up.

The JPG images are for demonstration. The PSD is for you to download.

basically did just that with Paint Shop Pro....same tools and such. I see the need to clean the edges a bit as I have a slight lighter color border around my "transparent" image...

Thanks again Fred

Have the person that rendered that out do it again and break it down into passes so you can blend them in your bitmap application ask for a color, shadow & reflection pass.

With that you can overlay it on anything you want or print it out without a background.
