yes that program editor - https://pixlr.com/editor/ you spoke about is great too.

To make it even better you can remove the background by using this tool - https://www.remove.bg

Yes that program remove.bg worked well too : i uploaded the original image and download the cut-out image, then i used gimp (which is also freeware) to do a small adjustment with the clone-tool, and then i reduced the image to 60x60 pixels , and saved this png-file. (18.7 kb) , the result is excellent.
