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.
Dear BMW....how do I do that....just take my photo into photoshop and enlarge it? I dunnno this side of pyxleyes is so challenging. Thank you.
How many megapixels is your camera or are you scanning film?
Nice job removing the background.The "high res" is smaller than posted picture though.
Perhaps it's not. I believe the web page resizes the preview image to 954px wide, which will auto-resize the vertical dimension.
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.
Alt+Ctrl+I on a pc.
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.
Thank you ....I will try that ............tomorrow!
Whatever you did it looks 4 Brazillion times better!
Thank you....I just switched the photo. This one I worked on a few days ago but wanted to make it "better" so did another one and made it worse...ha.
The portrait needs to be 17th century style, not modern.
feel free to remove it then.
