I have an image that I'd like to copy a selection from. The trouble is the selection I'd like to make is not a solid block colour so I can't select it using the magic wand. The background is though, so I was wondering, is there a way to reverse my selection? In other words, magic wand the background (around the image area) and the reverse it so that the image is highlighted instead of the background.

Hope this makes sense?

Many thanks :)

You can indeed do what you want.
Click on the magic wand and select the background.
Now click on the Selection dropdown menu and click on invert selection.
Make sure that the tools window has feathering set to 0 and unchecked or you will get a faded edge.
