How to Remove the White Background from an Image to Make it Transparent in Photoshop
There are many reasons why you would want to remove the white background from an image. Maybe you don’t have a transparent version of your logo or you need a cutout of your product to create a composite. Thankfully, Adobe Photoshop has plenty of options for removing a white background. Actually, with Photoshop you can remove any kind of background, you just need a little practice.
Let’s concentrate on removing a white (or solid color) background first. The tool and technique you use will depend on the quality of the overall image and its color. If the image which needs to be cut out has dark colors and no light colors, you can use the easy Background Eraser or Magic Eraser tools. Nevertheless, for images with light colors or detailed backgrounds, you will need a more detailed tool so that you don’t erase important parts of the image by mistake.
How to Use Section Divider Height Hover Effects to Reveal Content in Divi
Section Dividers continue to be a popular Divi design element. There are many divider styles to choose from with helpful options that make it easy to add unique transitions and backgrounds to your page.
In this tutorial, we are going to use section dividers a bit differently. Divi allows you to adjust the height and arrangement of each divider. This allows us to position dividers above certain areas or content within the section. By using the hover option for divider height, we can add unique hover effects that reveal partially hidden content. This works great for drawing attention to a particular call to action or button that you want visitors to click.
