Steve G Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 Hello. I'm new here and not quite sure where to get started. I have a picture of a web page and the only parts I wish to blur are the text fields and text areas. Not sure how to blur just a portion of a picture. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Simon Brown Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 Click and drag-select the area you want blurred, then run the blur. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
himself22 Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 (edited) Use any of the selection tools in the toolbar (see here Click on one of them. Select the area you want to blur by clicking and dragging. Than go to Effects-Blur-gassiaun blur. Deselect than reselect the next part you want to blur. If sides of selected image turns partially transparent, than copy and paste that part on a new layer above it than blur. Edit: Beaten.

ant Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Is there a way to do this with a brush like old Paint Shop Pro v8? I also used its smudge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
