ADOBE PHOTOSHOP ELEMENTS 4.0 114 User Guide To defringe a selection When you move or paste a selection, some of the pixels surrounding the selection border are included with the selection. These extra pixels can result in a fringe or halo around the edges of the selection. The Defringe Layer command replaces the color of any fringe pixels with the colors of nearby pixels containing pure colors (those without background color).

Defringe replaces the blue pixels with yellow pixels. Dog selected and copied to a new image where artifacts from the dark background are visible (top).
