How To Remove The Background Of A Photo Using PowerPoint

You know what one of my biggest design pet peeves is? When I\\\’m designing something, but there\\\’s an unwanted background on the image I\\\’m editing.
In this article, you\\\’ll learn how to remove a photo background altogether, or make it transparent so the image assumes the look of any other background you put behind it.
Consider the above feature image. The image to the left would be so much more useful to my call-to-action, SlideShare presentation, blog post, or ebook if I could just remove that pesky background so it looked like the image on the right.

Follow the following steps to Make a Picture Background Transparent in PowerPoint

STEPS:

  1. Insert the image into PowerPoint.
  2. Click on your image.
  3. Then, under Picture Tools click on “Format” in your toolbar,
  4. Now choose \\\’Remove Background.\\\’
  5. PowerPoint will automatically try to remove the background, but it might not get it just right.
  6. Using the options in the toolbar, click to mark areas you want to keep or remove from the final cropped image
  7. Click somewhere outside of the image when you\\\’re finished.
  8. Save the image as a PNG file to preserve its transparent background
  9. Done
