Neat Don. Thank you. C.A.G. ----- Original Message -----
Here's another way to deal with distracting background, but this time we're going to place the image in a different setting. We're still using the free GIMP program and a very simple method to get the effect. I use a photo I took of a room with a muslin backdrop and I deliberately left some tools and such around to show how easily they are dealt with. The table picture was taken in our kitchen after the table was restored. The table image is layered on top of the other image and then the background is erased. The base layer is thereby revealed. If you try to follow along practice with the tools and use Control+Z a lot. When the work is finished Save As with a new name. That way the original images remain untouched and you can place the new file in any folder you wish. Next time I plan to move on to another program to show some other image manipulation methods. Somewhere along the line I want to consider lighting to improve the quality of the image. Best regards, Don Will trade my wife's yarn for tools. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Legacy Ornamental Mills" group.
