tkuhrich Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 (edited) Hi, I have used Paint.Net for a while but only for basic usage. This is my first post on the forum so guide me if I am posting in the wrong area. I have a picture that was sent to me from someone asking for help to remove the effects of a filter. I can plainly see an area in the picture where the colors are not natural to the picture. My question is how do I remove the extra colors without messing up what was behind them? It appears someone used a blur or smudge filter in this one area. I will be happy to attach the picture but I am not sure if that is proper for the forum. Thanks in advance.

Ego Eram Reputo Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 Hi tkuhrich, Welcome to the forum! Try Effects > Photo > Sharpen with smallish settings. You can also try cleaning up the image with Effects > Noise > Reduce Noise . I'd try this option first if you're going to use them both.

tkuhrich Posted January 4, 2012 Author Share Posted January 4, 2012 Thank you for your help! I attempted what you suggested and it didn't clear up the picture. This may be beyond me! Thanks, Kent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
