...........but but but but..........tell us how you did this. What filter did you use, that way we all can learn from your post. Thank you.

Thank you for sharing.

Good result & explanation.

The portrait needs to be 17th century style, not modern.

New Image is up.

Bahhhhhhhhhhhhh looks horrible....please view in hig res.

You have to make that bigger. It is 475 X 484px which is way too small. Images can be up to 3500X3500. We need to see the detail in your Photoshop and even at "Hi-Res" we can't.

Nice job removing the background.The "high res" is smaller than posted picture though.

Thank you....I need all the help I can get. How do I make this larger...will wait until you guys advise before I change it.

Use Image size option in photoshop.

I did it but it still looks lousy, so I put up another one that had more pixels in it. Thank you

Nice work removing the string on the man's arm!
My only suggestion would be to try and soften the edges of the sack. Try a soft brush and the blur tool.
Good luck.

Whatever you did it looks 4 Brazillion times better!
