Hi, hope someone here can help me out!
Regarding the image below:
I need to remove the text ?Do The Dog Music?, so the image is just the dog sitting on a record. It would probably look good with a hole in the middle too, maybe something like one of the letter ?o??s in the word ?Dog?
I?ve tried all sorts of methods using selection tools, magic wands, layers etc, (I?d rather avoid freehand!) but can?t get it looking that great. The closest I?ve got to success is filling in the letters with black, and using selections I made using the magic wand, to mask (not using mask tools/layers though!) around the parts I don?t want, merging the layers and deleting the selection.
I'm probably doing it all wrong, below is how/what I've done so far:
FYI I?m probably a fairly moderate user of Photoshop, no expert, but generally know my way around it. I don?t get the layer mask concept yet though, and I have feeling it might play a part in achieving this! :\
BTW it doesn?t have to be an immaculate edit, as the image is only going to be around 32x32px, (an icon).
Thanks in advance for your help!
Alex
P.S the image I'm working on is high res (approx 1600x1300)
