How to get rid of paths and anchors when exporting image

[anenglish]

Hey all,

I imported a png file into Illustrator so I could change its color from pink to blue.  But when I try to export the new file, the paths and achors still show up (as in the second photo below).  Any idea how to get rid of them?  I want the png to look exactly as the orginal png, with the same texture, shade, etc, but just in the color blue. 

Any help would be appreciated!

To change the colors of an image, use an image editor like Photoshop.
