Getting Rid of Unwanted text (Paint Shop tutorial)

[ShaneG_old]

It may be called something different in Photo shop, but in Paint Shop Pro, it's called clone.

It allows you to select a pixel or group of pixels, and clone them where you want them.

I sometimes get rid of multi player red text this way.


Like this:



Select the clone tool (or whatever it's called in PS)





Next set the size to 1 pixel and select the pixel Directly over where you will start, this way it matches the surrounding pixels. Right click the mouse to select the pixel, and then move down 1 pixel and use the left mouse button to start cloning.






Now just keep going until it's gone.






When it's gone, it may look a little pixelated, so go back over the area with a Smudge or blend tool :






And that's it! Banners gone  ;):







Hope this helps someone.

Good luck.

[color=#000000]Nice tutorial Shane. I've 'worn' out about a dozen clone brushes.

See below for Photo Shop (I guess it didn't change in the newer versions):

Select the tool, point to the pixels you want to copy then hit alt + left mouse to select them. Go on like Shane said above...

Thanks Meck!

I have Photoshop 7, but I don't know anything about it.  ;)
