    Even with Photoshop or Image ready you will get the white pixels around that edge. That is due to anti aliasing to make the outline smooth.

    To get rid of the white pixels, after you remove the white background, you need to add a 1 pixel stroke at 100% opacity...
    ie: [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
    Be sure that the stroke's position is "Inside". You'll need to do that with each layer. Make the stroke a color that blends well with the image.

    You'll want to do it in image ready or photoshop.

    Hope that helps..

    Do one layer then right click that layer, select "Copy Layer Style" then select all the layers (Select first layer, hold shift then select last layer) and then right click and "Paste Layer Style"

    Well I/m glad you know your uH Hmmm yeah you know.. It's doable but it will take some time. the background colors not an issue the shadows need to be re,over pixels at time not to mess up the image, here is an example of the crab on a dark background.

    [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

    Here is the transparent image.[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

    if you look closely you can see on the clear image it still needs to be cleaned out better.
