Can't tell if from Futurama.. Or the greek epic The Odyssey
:
As they were speaking, a dog that had been lying asleep raised his head and pricked up his ears. This was Argos, whom Odysseus had bred before setting out for Troy, but he had never had any enjoyment from him. In the old days he used to be taken out by the young men when they went hunting wild goats, or deer, or hares, but now that his master was gone he was lying neglected on the heaps of mule and cow dung that lay in front of the stable doors till the men should come and draw it away to manure the great close; and he was full of fleas. As soon as he saw Odysseus standing there, he dropped his ears and wagged his tail, but he could not get close up to his master. When Odysseus saw the dog on the other side of the yard, dashed a tear from his eyes without Eumaios seeing it, and said: 'Eumaios, what a noble hound is that is over yonder on the manure heap: his build is splendid; is he as fine a fellow as he looks, or is he only one of those dogs that come begging about a table, and are kept merely for show?' 'This dog,' answered Eumaios, 'belonged to him who has died in a far country. If he were what he was when Odysseus left for Troy, he would soon show you what he could do. There was not a wild beast in the forest that could get away from him when he was once on its tracks. But now he has fallen on evil times, for his master is dead and gone, and the women take no care of him. Servants never do their work when their master's hand is no longer over them, for Zeus takes half the goodness out of a man when he makes a slave of him.' So saying he entered the well-built mansion, and made straight for the riotous pretenders in the hall. But Argos passed into the darkness of death, now that he had fulfilled his destiny of faith and seen his master once more after twenty years. —Homer, Odyssey, Book 17, lines 290-327

Practicing with some editing tools and how to get ideal transparency without ruining the outlines or sharpness.

Standard, nothing special

Ya see here, this is what happens when I normally used the transparency tool. It can't differentiate between the black background and literally everything else consisting of that same color. Basic tool is very basic

Found a work-around with this long time issue. Found the right tools to swap out a color in a given space/zone. Along with manually erasing parts of the image i.e text, logos, ect. If you can't tell, this helped me preserve the sharpness and outlines if the picture, and more importantly, preserve color where I want it to be
Such a pain doing this mobile, and by touch screen no less >__< this was all done via lunapic FYI
