In this Inkscape tutorial you’ll learn how to remove the background from a photo for free. Inkscape is free design software similar to Photoshop and Illustrator however, Inkscape is totally free to use. In this tutorial I’ll show you how to use the Bezier tool to trace out the object you want to remove from the background and then how to use the Clip feature to pop that image right out of the background. I’ll also go over how to remove smaller sections of your photo if needed. There’s no need to pay for apps that do this for you when you can remove the background from a photo for free with Inkscape.

Easily the best explanation I've seen. A thousand thanks.

@CrystalsCrafties Год назад

Wow, thanks!

@funlovers5 Год назад

it doesn't work because I'm unable to change the fill so the moment i stop cropping it turns black,anyone can help?

@edwinvarghese 6 месяцев назад

faced same issue. but didnt matter...i then selected the whole thing as shown in the tuturial (image and selection) and then object>clip>set clip. It worked!

@ZeroPlaytime 5 месяцев назад

I know it's probably late, but you need to set the fill to none (it was set on black by default somehow) I'll just leaving it here this in case other people needed it.

I never leave comments but just had to thank you for s video. As someone with no graphic design experience learning Inkscape and gimp in order to things I need to do in a new occupation as been pretty overwhelming. This is such a simple way to do this which is a big piece of the puzzle for things I need to do. Game changer. Good concise video. Thanks so much Crystal.

@@CrystalsCrafties a lot of videos start off the lessons already assuming you know what tools to use and where they are. I think I speak for a lot of us when I say, we don’t even know where the tool is, let alone being able to do anything on the canvas.

@@CrystalsCrafties I’m outlining a dog and when I get to his feet it whites out half of his body. I’m wondering how to prevent that. I did complete an outline once but then it’s removing the dog and not the background. I don’t know how to get it to reverse the part of the image I can keep.

I Was able to do this successfully in inkscape; however, When I imported my image over to Cricut Design Space it turned out black. Is there any reason behind this or did I do something wrong?

@mikethompson9745 Год назад

So I just today found you r channel, and I was able to follow exactly what i needed in one pass, I have little photo app experience and gimp and photoshop befuddle me, I subscribed and I hope you you made a lot of videos on ink scape. next i"m going to look on how to bend text, I just got a laser engraver and everything's new. Thank you for the highlighted cursor and a pace that was for the beginner.

@user-vr6hd1yv2i 10 месяцев назад

Excellent tutorial, thank you so much! I have always found Inkscape's Pen and Node tools far superior to those of the 'competitors' especially when it comes to snapping. I don't like GIMP's Paths tool either. So, just using Inkscape for cut outs makes my life easier. In regard to the inner area, I would use GIMP and maximize the transparency for that with a layer mask. I have just found that Inkscape auto-refreshes linked bitmap images as they get updated in GIMP so they perfectly complement each other and it's almost the same experience that Affinity Designer. Thank you again!

@cheryldell9252 Год назад

my picture goes pink over the top when i do bitmap and join the dot up, then it cuts away the background but when I clip to a different background it dissappears, where have I gone wrong I have watched your you tube over and over and you don't get the pink over the top once you join the dots. nor does your picture dissappear when you clip set. Thanks so much I am much getting annoyed that I might be missing something. Thanks

@CrystalsCrafties Год назад

You shouldn't have to make a bitmap of anything. Just import your image, just the bezier tool to trace around what you want to cut out and then select your tracing and the original photo and clip set.

Not trying to be mean but there is a program called " Remove Background" that is free that will do it much easier. 😁

@musicsexlove 2 года назад

Those programs really only work best with 1 color backgrounds. With photos like these that have complex backgrounds, inkscape/photoshop/gimp/etc programs work way better IMO

@wittyfpv Год назад

Maybe if u have a simple photo taken with a single colour background. Iv been using every app under the sun to remove the background from some photos of deer out in the wild and I can tell you now none of the "remove background" apps/programs do not work. Only way to do it is manually

@Flat_Earth_Addy Год назад

Big deal. You can do this with photoshop. But this is NOT a PDF!!!

@beckysteffens3976 11 месяцев назад

Inkscape is a free program. Photoshop is not. This is to help those who may not have the resources to get Photoshop. That's why it's a big deal.

@@beckysteffens3976 lol photoshop is free, genius.

@Jer0867 2 года назад

I thought this was going to be some sort of special or fast function...there are many easier (and faster) ways to do this on free things that I've used for years! This is a waste of time.

ok so please let us know the faster ways.?
