A Graphic Question

I used to use a different technique to make my graphics transparent, but now I'm using the Magic Wand Tool. Thing is I am confused because I don't know how to transfer it on to another background after I've made it transparent. Thanks <3

just copy the image and paste it to the background

That doesn't work though it brings along the white background from using the Magic Wand Tool.

Photofiltre or Pixlr.

oh, ok them i'm not sure, because i use photoshop, and when you use magic wand or eraser or anything to get rid of the background, it makes it transparent

Oh thanks anyways. Does someone else know how to?

You put a layer with the background under the layer with your character. Then you remove the background around your character with the magic wand tool, and the layer underneath will show up.
I'm not completely sure what you're asking, but I hope this helped~

So what your saying is that I paste the background on first and then the layer with the character over it and then use the magic wand tool?

Yup. Just make sure the background you want and your character are on separate layers.

How do you make it be different layers? Because this is what happened:

create another layer and then copy and paste

it seems like your background didnt get completely erased...try finishing that first
