I know I can use the pen tool, channels, and quick selection or select and mask tools.I tried to use the quick selection a.k.a select and mass option.If you see the top of it is messed up completely.How to fix it any idea, help, tips, tutorials, please ?? Especially the top part is complicated. Those poles etc..
