PhotoScissors does a good job at removing backgrounds and most of the times, the extraction operation is flawless.

It’s enough to draw a few lines over the background that you want gone and to highlight the object to be kept in order to extract it from the original image. The removal of the objects is done in accordance with your needs, through two main brushes that enable you to mark what should be removed (background) and what should stay (foreground). Users benefit from a before / after experience, where the original photo is aligned with the result so that differences are made more obvious. PhotoScissors benefits from a decent set of functions, which are neatly organized inside its intuitive and user-friendly interface.

In terms of results though, PhotoScissors’s power is somewhat limited, but satisfactory, overall. Another advantage is that the program can process images with any type of background, as opposed to the unicolor design that is required in chroma key.

In contrast with chroma key editors, PhotoScissors is a simpler approach that costs less and is easier to use. However, these are costly solutions that require advanced editing skills, therefore they are less accessible to home users. One of the most popular graphic extraction technologies is chroma key, which can be used with both still and moving pictures and is usually incorporated by plugins that run on hosts such as Photoshop. Targeting still images exclusively, this program stands out through ease of use and accessibility, to the benefit of all audiences.

PhotoScissors is an innovative application that serves to erase backgrounds from digital images, preserving only the objects that are of interest to you.
