This worked for me.
Use the rounded rectangle tool to make the shape you and the size you want on a new layer of the item you are trying to cut out. Place this layer on top of the item to be trimmed.
Magnify cntrl+ until you are almost seeing pixels. Use the erase tool to erase arond the border of the rounded corners. Do all 4. Then hide the overlay layer and look at your work.
If it is what you want delete the layer with the rounded rectangle overlay. Same your image as a psd and then optimized. You can use the optimized image like any other image.
Did that help?
