Theres the easy way, like you do it wendy. I may use smart radius and decontaminate colors just to help out abit in CS5.

Then there's the hard way.
Go to Channels, pick out most contrasty.

If clean background. go to calculations and double up on that layer in a new alpha channel. paint in everything you want at black and everything not to white. use levels to bring out the contrast to make things easier. once done, copy selection to original layer, and youre done.

If youre not on a plain background. the process is similar, but you'll find using LAB mode a bit easier to work with.


Smart radius?
