I'm looking for an efficient way of doing something. Like, for example removing the hair from this pose to make just a generic body for head swaps. Some sprites already have this but some have a head or hair attached by default. I've tried using fuzzy select and then deleting which only works okay and doesn't work at all with black hair because it also selects the sprite's outline. Manually erasing is time consuming and fiddly as well.
If you are only doing this on Sprites, path tool is your friend. For me It will probably only takes 5mins max for the example one. It's a manual way to do it, but it's also the most precise tool in any edit program.
