 - **Error Handling**: Clear error messages and troubleshooting tips
 - **Multi-threaded**: Non-blocking interface during generation
 
+### **🔧 Background Removal Features**
+- **Automatic Processing**: Backgrounds removed automatically after generation
+- **Multiple Methods**: AI-powered (rembg) and simple fallback methods
+- **Standalone Tool**: `remove_backgrounds.py` for manual processing
+- **Flexible Options**: Works with or without GPU acceleration
+- **Batch Processing**: Process entire directories of images
+
+## Background Removal
+
+### **Automatic Background Removal (Built-in)**
+The application automatically removes backgrounds from generated images during post-processing:
+
+**When it works:**
+- ✅ Images are processed automatically after generation
+- ✅ Transparent backgrounds for better FM integration
+- ✅ GPU acceleration when available
+
+**When it doesn't work:**
+- ⚠️ Images keep original backgrounds
+- ⚠️ May need manual processing
+
+### **Manual Background Removal**
+If automatic removal fails, use the standalone tool:
+
+```bash
+# Remove backgrounds from all images in a directory
+python remove_backgrounds.py ./NewGens/
+
+# Use specific method
+python remove_backgrounds.py ./NewGens/ --method rembg
+
+# Save to different directory
+python remove_backgrounds.py ./NewGens/ --output-dir ./NewGens_Processed/
+```
+
+### **Background Removal Methods**
+
+| Method | Quality | Speed | Requirements | Notes |
+|--------|---------|-------|--------------|-------|
+| **rembg** | ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ | ⭐⭐⭐ | `rembg[gpu]` | Best quality, AI-powered |
+| **Simple** | ⭐⭐ | ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ | Built-in | Fallback method, basic results |
+
+### **Installing Background Removal**
+
+**For best quality (recommended):**
+```bash
+pip install rembg[gpu]==2.0.59
+```
+
+**For CPU-only:**
+```bash
+pip install rembg==2.0.59
+```
+
+**If rembg fails:**
+```bash
+# The simple method works without additional dependencies
+python remove_backgrounds.py ./NewGens/ --method simple
