  1. Good video, you must have a steady hand…I don't know if it is me or my mouse, but I seem to be more shaky than you…may I ask what type of mouse you are using? I've gone through a dozen or more in an effort to find one that has a tight radius without being so sensitive that it shakes all over my pics.
    Also, if I may add to your PM instruction…one trick I've learned with PM is adjusting the "hardness" of my brush when erasing the background. It's nice to set at 100% when I want to have crisp lines or set less when I want a softer edge. You didn't mention the option and I remember when I was a new PM user I struggled with my soft edges being very visible against darker backgrounds, and the harder edge is like using scissors so the soft edge isn't over-lapping the new background, if this makes sense? But I like to use a softer edge especially when I am going to have a busy background that has lots of detail, the soft edge creates more of a 'blended' effect which has come in handy more than once. 🙂
    I hope it's OK I add this suggestion/tip, and if you don't mind sharing your trick to moving your mouse in such a smooth manner, I would greatly appreciate it!

  2. We restore antique furniture and wanted to know how to use other backgrounds that were not photo prop drops.  Thank you for the video.  I subscribe to Pic Monkey and you made me smarter.  Thank you again…
