Please help with this photo....

[titosoneo]

Hey guys,

Martoch referred me to this forum for some help. I have a photo that I would like to use for a power point presentation. The photo has some details that I would like to get rid of, but I don't know how.

Here is the photo....and I would like to get rid of the cat and the letters, but have the photo look like they were never there.

Here is the link to my photo:

Let me work on it for you, i will do as much as i can, then I'll let the pros do it like outpatient

[Martoch]

Hey buddy, glad to see you finally posted! How long have I been encouraging you now...weeks?


Of course I will make an attempt at this photo when I have time, but I'm very short on that right now...plus I'm such a noob compared to a lot of you guys!



It would be super if OuT decides to work his magic...I think he'll let us give it a shot first though...see if we sink or swim. He knows he can do it no problem, have you seen what that man can do with images?!

[iNeb]

Well, I'm still not that good. The textures are screwing me up though. Kinda hard to work around with them. Plus I'm still learning


As long as you don't look close it looks fine... heh


Don't want to mess with it more, i could finish it all, but stince it won't look good kinda upclose i won't try

[Martoch]

Hey iNeb, pretty good buddy! (especially for how fast you did it)


There's something funny about the tree trunk though...kinda reminds me of a cat's ear.

Here's a rookie effort with just MS Photo Editor. I'm sure there's Photo Shop pros here who could do better.

[Martoch]

Well I use Photoshop 7, but I'm certainly no pro! M_Six, looks good, but I think he wanted to keep the table/glasses in the picture.

But man, for only using Photo Editor that's one helluva good job!

[iNeb]

Like i said, i would of finished it but up close you can tell that it is edited. As i suspect he will be using this for a background? that he doesn't want this blurry..



OT: you avatar reminds me off the CS map set in the construction area.



Nice, but i can see you just copy and pasted a good 100 pixel area. Nice tho... I could do that and add my edited version of the table...

[M_Six]

Blast! I guess I need to read more closely.

Oh well, the table and drinks are history in my picture. Like I implied, I'm no pro and this was a quickie edit.

[titosoneo]

Hey M_Six I agree with Martoch, that's a hell of a try....I worked on it for 2 hours last night, but got frustrated and stopped trying...

Guys,
I'll be out for a little while, but please don't stop trying.

Thanks for your efforts!
Will be back with ya'all later,

Here's the table if anyone is intrested

[SaTaNcLaUz]

here you go, i like removing thins

[iNeb]

All you did was color over it, no textures or anything

[Creatures]

well he copied a small part of the water and then paste it three four times!

looks good!

[SaTaNcLaUz]

eh, sorta, photoshop has this "cloning brush" that you can paint with other parts of the picture... and i just used black paintbrush to get rid of the other stuff

[jannybean2002]

I have had a go but its too big to put in as an attatchment. Help!!

[SaTaNcLaUz]

if you are using photoshop try using the "save for web" option to optimize it

[jannybean2002]

well, what do you think? don't be too hard on me

[jannybean2002]

I have the original too, that looks better......optimizing made it look worse

[SaTaNcLaUz]

nice! hehe, helluva lot better than mine!

p.s. when you optimize you can set the quality and all that stuff too
