It worked. No problems with this first attempt. Took a lifetime to erase around the family on 200%zoom but got her done.
I do have a question...
What if I want to try many backdrops per photo to give the family options so they can choose the one they want? I don't want to have to do the tedious erasing on each cut out. Can I do it once and save that? Will that save?
Is there a certain technique for doing that?
Thank you,
Hello. I need to remove some folks from one photo and put them on a nice backdrop of another photo. (They want a studio family portrait look.) How do you download backdrops to Paint.net and what is the best way to move people, or any subject, from one picture to another.
Any tips?
Thanks,
I was just looking at and admiring this site,
Brianna Graham - Grand Rapids, Michigan Portrait Photographer, photography, children's photography
and wonder what technique you would call this and how is it accomplished?
Thank you.
Oh, how wonderful that turned out!!
I will definitely use this Smudge. Great advice and it looks perfect!How cute!
Thanks Sarkut and himself22!!
I appreciate all your help and even trying it out!

This is it after turning to B&W. Of course it'd probably be wiser to fix while colored.??
What do you think? Any hope?
There's also a few stray hairs crossing over the eyes I want to remove.
I took some pictures of a clients dog. They look great, all but for the runny eye that's wetted the hair below.
Using the same clone,blur, etc. techniques for people are proving more difficult for all that hair on the face.
Any tips for cleaning it up?
Thank you.
Client wants her flag colored with the rest black and white.
Is there a tutorial on this?
Thank you.
(I tried looking but don't know what you'd call this action. Sorry)
Why do I always have the checkerboard in the way.
I am trying to follow the directions of http://www.softwarehowtos.com/article-how-to-make-a-picture-into-antiquing-classic-1239346652.html
and get the checkerboards when using the tools. Then, when I flatten, it's still there. What am I doing wrong?
Thank you.
I have used the vignetting plugin but get a definite ring at the junction of the main subject and the beginnings of the shadowing.
So, I tried the gradient and am not seeing the color. Googling this I see instructions for photoshop, etc. but not paint.net.
Is there a specific how-to for us here?
I try to soften the portrait in the top layer then change the opacity. That's when I get the checkerboard and it stays no matter how I flatten or merge.
What is the difference between merge (self explanatory) and flatten?
I see many how to's of how to do things in Layers but not how to merge them. When I flatten I end up with the checkerboard look.
I need specifics...
Do you click on all layers and merge down
or
Do you click on all layers and flatten?
Just how do you put them all together?
Thank you.
