Crop Help

Can someone, please, please, please, crop this guy for me:



You can leave the swirls but please take out the text (nexus) - I'm doing a design for them but can't seem to crop the guy out - I suck at cropping. Thanks.

While your at it, woudl it be too much to ask if the background was transparent? I really haven't learned everything about this yet so its really hard.

Then you could do the design as well, when you've got 5 mins

Sorry but I don't think so, I hope you have saved the image I've made for you because I'm going to take it down soon.

Sorry people,

I wasn't trying to force it on Dixon. Can you please tell me how I can do it myself? I'm not too good with the cropping stuff...

It's easier than you think, just experiment.
I used the stamp tool to lose the border and the text.
Bit if you want to have a transpaernt background you should use the eraser, don't be afriad to change brush sizes for the tight corners make sure you duplicate the layer before you start because you might lose the original.

stamp tool is a very good tool for editing images
press alt and click to desire the origin you want to duplicate from.
change brush sizes often!

stamp tool can be useful, but I find if you have large areas to reconstruct it's good to use witha general cutting/pasting/manipulating technique. Oh and always remember to do it on a seperate layer so you can always take it off/step back/start again - with ease.

If your earasing large areas of the same colour you could select a range then delete the selection, eraser still good for sorting out the edges/intricate parts though.

Good luck
