AKVIS SmartMask Photoshop masking tool
(Marco Gransee, SnapFiles.com, WebAttack Inc, 4/2008)

There are two pencils (red and blue); you draw a line with the blue pencil inside the object you want to select (for example, yourself on a group photo), and with the red pencil - some lines outside the object, to define the areas that should be cut out (other guys in the photo), then process it...
