Title: need some help from the graphic wiz\'s
Post by: mm on March 01, 2003, 11:00:06 AM
this is a pic of my neighbor and his new wife that i took some time ago

i didnt notice it at the time, but the light in the ceiling in the background is terrible, and they hate it

i can use photoshop well enough to remove the time stamp, but i cant do the light

i included another photo of the ceiling if it helps

thanks guys

I\'m feeling sick mm right now, but I promise help with this tomorrow, if you have time of course. Anyway, I\'m not a graphic wizard.

I\'m going to bed.

Ceiling tiles suck ass!!!!!!

Cloned one, used Transform to try and get it into place, then used burn to make it darker.  

Actually your best bet and I could play around with it is to replace the entire ceiling with the second pic you shot.

Here is with the other ceiling tiles.  Another quickie.  Couldn\'t get the tiles on the left side to work.  Your other pic wasn\'t at the right angle.

Damn, it\'s much harder that you\'d think. Well, here\'s my first try.

EDIT: Bleh, stupid host. Can\'t show it kiddies. Sowwy.

I didn\'t do much.  Just put the two pics that mm did on seperate layers and cut out the lit ceiling tiles and replaced it with the unlit ones.  I had to use transform on the unlit ceiling tiles to make them fit.

Picture manipulation is the best.

Here is a before and after.

I brought the level of the water down.  Straightened the pic, added the birds, and made it black and white.  My mom isn\'t the best photographer.  Actually she may be the worst, but it\'s still fixable...
