Can anyone edit this small pic for me please?

Edit: Never mind, lol.







At first glance it looks like it's just the weight but it actually has a white square background which I'd like cut out. The 'cut' function in Paint will only let me crop an area like a square etc rather than cutting round the weight itself.

Has anyone got a few minutes to cut this out for me please and could post the pic which I could then save to my pc? I'm seriously rubbish at doing anything with pictures other than posting them.

The original was the first hit on google for one pound weight in case it makes any diference and the original's needed.

Do you have the permission of the copyright owner?

If not then you are asking for someone to help you infringe copyright.

I suggest you contact the company hosting this image and ask them if you can use it. They are likely to say yes anyway, but the consequences of not doing so could be rather expensive, especially since you have posted this on a public forum.

I didn't realise there would be any issue, I thought Google images were free for others to use. I'll delete the pic then.

It would be very easy to do Aliasojo, but the copyright issues are a big thing. Looking at the pic they appear to have taken it themselves, and would therefore own the rights in it.

That said, I don't see them saying no to you. Fire them off a quick email and ask if it's alright. If they say yes, I'll do the cropping (2 minute job!).

No worries, thanks for the offer but I'm onto plan B now.

These are not Google's images. Google just crawls the Internet and indexes them for you. People tend to think that everything on the Internet is copyright free. But in fact, it's the other way around. Only if the owner explicitly says, that you can use it, it's safe.

No problem. Let me know if you get stuck though, as I have access to a full range of weights at work and can get you whatever pics you need!
