Newbie Q. please...

I'm using CS2 and have come up with a Logo for my Tile Company. I would like to use this logo for a powerpoint presentation as well as for my web site.

Q. I'm having trouble lifting the logo without the background. Needless to say... I'll use the background of the web page, powerpoint. Please advise... thank you!

lifting as in copying or moving?

Kind of got me there iDad ...not really sure. Just want to move it to a powerpoint page (Im thinking) as a image...but without the background as you see above. I want only the diamond shape and the Chaney Tile text above it. TK Muddy

select (all) of the background, could be tricky. Then select inverse copy and then create a new document using clipboard, paste to it. done, you have just logo

Ummmm....I'll give that a go iDad!! Thank you very much! Muddy

[iDad]

probably easier if you know the font used for logo I just tried it, for a new user I can see how you would have trouble

[muddywaters]

The font for the Chaney Tile is Chisel D and the font on the diamond block is New Times, Italic...

Actually what I was attempting to do...was extract it. No go!

I'm assuming...that the file must be flattened first? Then attempt to lift the logo? TK

Looks great from here...as the logo was reduced for the web. The proceedure is as you discribed above?

[iDad]
