Can anyone help me fix a photo?? - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Doodlebug · 10-22-2009, 09:01 AM

I hope someone can help me. A local pet store is having a Halloween photo contest and I wanted to enter a photo but I don't really have a good one. I picked an older one out but I want to delete the bad background.

Can anyone help me fix this photo? I would like to either make the picture a "circle" around the little flower rug to cut out most of the ugly background wood, or even better, cut out around the flower shape and cut out the ugly wood entirely.

Thanks if anyone can help me. I have to get the photo entered before 6pm today.

Thanks in advance!!

Gotta tell you. I think it is a winner. I would leave it. They are sooooo cute, you really don't look ay the deck. It is centered nicely and they are both looking. I would count my blessings, so to say, and use it.

Good luck and let us know how they do.

I don't know anything about fixing photos. But, this is a great shot. I'd be tempted to leave it as is. Cute, cute, cute!

OK thanks for the comment, I appreciate it. I will go ahead and use it if you think it is OK. I just wanted to participate because the shop that is running the contest is where we take them to get groomed and everyone there loves Daisy and Teddy. Thanks again!

I think the photo is darling just like it is. Good luck with the contest.

I was able to cut out the deck as requested. Now you have a choice -
Good luck!

Oh, thank you, I love it! I already sent the other one but they would probably change it for me. Hmmm...any ideas if I should switch it? Let me know what you think.

They're both very cute. But, I think I like the original better.

Sometimes they will disqualify you if they think the photo is "photoshopped", you might want to read the rules. I think you might be safer with the original, and I love the way the weathered wood looks. Great photo, good luck!

Thanks. I am going to save the cut-out one for future use. Thanks so much dtrahan511!!! You did a great job!

Ohhhh Myyyy....I would leave it as is too....it's sooo very cute! lol

deeogie · 10-22-2009, 11:14 AM

It would be ok too... if you just place a few pots of flowers around your big flower if it's the deck you don't want to see!
