How to cut a photo?

Hello I am wanting to know the best free photo editor I can use to cut a photo out from a background like you can on Photoshop

I had Photoshop CS5 on my laptop I no longer have so sadly I can't edit photos

if anyone does it as a hobby and wants to help to edit a small photo I'd be grateful if I cant get a software online much appreciated ... Jack!

Should be able to help.... I use CorelDraw and Adobe Photoshop... (and play snooker)

Thank you! I really appreciate that I am downloading the free trial version of photoshop now which lasts 7 days just in case you can't I emailed you

Gimp, Paint.NET, Affinity Photo, "Sketch", Pixlr

All 'free' photo editing/manipulation software...

have a google for them, have a little read, download one

Yeah i agree with Gimp, free, open source (?? i believe?) full featured

Thank you for the replies! I will have a look into them!

The highlighted App is not free. It's a Serif program which was a demo when released for Windows last year. They sometimes offer discounts to existing customers but costs a lot less than the extortionate rental of Adobe Photoshop and does the same thing practically. Gimp is open source and easiest way to get it is from:

Hi Snooker147,

The default file format for Gimp is .xcf - what you do is when you paste an image into GIMP it automatically wants to save as an .xcf file. What you need to do to 'save' as .png is to 'Export' it and choose the correct extension (.png) from the drop-down list provided on the interface when you select the File | Export function.
