I would like to know how I can remove certain unwanted items from a photo so it was like it was never there to begin with.Items such as a street light or telephone pole.

it's kinda hard to do..well for a beginner..but what i do is i use the "smudge" tool which looks like a hand with the index finger sticking out..pretty much zoom in at the object and lightly blend it in with say the sky or whatever else is surrounding it

Quote, originally posted by darcmater Â»a nice free online program i like to use is called gimp, its like adobe photoshop.yeah, it's cool that GIMP (GNU Image Manipulation Program) is free and comes with almost all distros of linux. it's been a quite a few years since i've played with photoshop (version 4) or another program other than Paint to save a screen cap. how well does GIMP use vs. any version of photoshop. does it have the same tools, or at least something close?and zion, AMAZING work! i can't tell that there was a pole there unless you go back and forth between the images.

Gimp is pretty fun to use, It's just not anywhere near the number of features as something like ps cs3...It's good for basic stuff though

darcmater · Post by **darcmater** » Tue Jun 10, 2008 2:35 am

I am not sure what version they are up to, but I have 2.2 of gimp. It has the usual stuff like workign in layers,smudge, magic laso, the wand all the normal stuff. I don't have enough knowledge of all what adobe photoshop and others do to compare them. But for being free it works great on what most normal peopel will do.
