Both were valuable. However When I double click the PNG or PSD file in the image I cannot seem to at time create a layer vs select the image with the magic. wand. So for clarity what tool. illustrator or Photoshop were you wanting me to use and do you know why neither I cannot select with the wand or create a background layer. Which ICONs or tools were you expecting me to use. I am missing something here and I am not sure why. I know this should be easier. Thank you so much for your help.

Here is what I had to do. I do not know why the items above would not work well.
I used the magic wand to select an area in Photoshop. Then I selected the area set the color to black and used the fill tool to fill with that color. It seemed to work. I am not sure why it would not work before. I really tried everything. I am assuming it was a selection I did not understand between layers and the original image. Thanks for the help.
