What Background Color Remover does

When to use it

- Make icons or logos transparent when the background is a flat color.
- Prepare a PNG overlay without opening a graphics editor.
How to use it
- Add the image and sample the background color.
- Adjust tolerance until only the intended background disappears.

What to check
