You need to have the pen tool selected. Not pencil, not any of the lasso tools...the pen tool. Then add anchor points around the shape you want to cut out. Then see the paths tab and there should be your selection. Right click on it and pick "make selection".

Ok, thanks mate. Works perfectly now. Great way of doing it, erasing all of the background took ages.

Thanks for helping Diagle, I am quite busy at the moment. I'm also glad this is helping people.

No problem, I've been using that technique for some time now since it's really simple and effective if you use it with patience  | |

Ohh and hope you know that by pressing the CTRL-button and dragging an anchor point, you can actually move the points without it affecting the rest of the points.
Also just clicking anywhere along the path adds an anchor point. These will help you to avoid using the action history
Can't remember the other buttons that can be used | |
