I know that there's a lot of tutorials on how to make the background transparent. But I can't find any on how to make the foreground transparent. These transparent checkerboxes should be on the t-shirt but the background would remain white

    Unless I'm missing something ....Simply use a "background removal" tutorial and reverse the removal. It's all the same methodology. You simply have to think of the shirt as the background and the white as the foreground.

  • You can invert the layer masks.
