Paint.Net / Remove Backgrounds From Images

[CloudStalker]

Edit:

This is exactly the program I've been looking for! Its got tons of tools for editing photos, like the "Magic Wand" tool which can be used to cut out certain objects from their surroundings, like black/white backgrounds.

Resized and used as icon in RocketDock:


You can even add transparency to layers via slider
for a more see-through look.

Used as icon in RocketDock:


I've also used this on more detailed backgrounds and the results are just wonderful.

This program is open source (in other words FREE) and has tons of awesome plugins that further enhance this program.

And here's the icing on the cake: Plugins

I hope everyone likes it.

Bump.

I Made a small update since this thread was originally to ask if there was a program that could do what you see above, but since I already found it I'm making it into the thread.
