I've been using [Canva](https://www.canva.com/) for a few years now when I want to create images for content I'm sharing or posting online. The UI is great and they offer a lot of templates for all the different sizes that platforms prefer. It'd been a bit though since I'd used it heavily so when I picked it back up this past month to create thumbnails for the videos I've been posting on my [YouTube channel](https://www.youtube.com/@stevanfreeborn) they offered me a free trial of their premium service. I've been using it for the last couple weeks and really the main feature included in their premium service I've been using is their background removal. I know how to do background removal in Photoshop and GIMP, but Canva's makes it so easy and fast with just a click of a button. However with the trial expiring I just can't justify another subscription for a single feature. That is when the engineer in me kicked in and I thought, "Surely I can figure out how to do this myself." So here we are. 😅
