Step 3 - Zooming In

Now your going to zoom in. Thats the button that looks like a magnifying glass. Click on that and zoom in to a comfortable level by left clicking. The more you zoom in the longer time it will take but the better the cutout will be. Once you are zoomed in use the pen tool to go around the whole image where you wanted cut and left click around the edges. Once you come to the end that's where you will connect the points by clicking on your first point again.

Once all the points are together, it should be just a outline. Ok after you've done that go to windows and click on paths. Once your there right click, and press selection.
