|
|
Like say if there's a gray background with red text over it. If I want to get rid of that red text, I have to somehow use the exact background color to cover the text.
I know you can do it with paint, but the picture I need to do this on doesn't have a simple color. It's a really complicated color tone, so I need to copy that exact color over the text.
Thanks in advance. |

| You could use the clone stamp tool and try cloning the text out. Post your image and we can see exactly what needs doing and we can tell you better. |

| Ok, select it, (S) then alt/option+Click on a part of your picture similar to the bit your covering and paint over it, you might need to resample if there is alot to do. |

That image is not as easy as it looks to clone as its a gradiant over a background if the background is not that important just remove it and re add the gradiant ya self like this you are also welcome to use the one i did if you wish

ya johnathan i got the exact same effect as you more like a small gradiant rather than a flowing one like the other side i dont like it wich is why i tryde it the way i did it but you did a good job and it gives the poster 2 options  |
