Can someone show me how to remove this "removable" watermark. I have played around with it but am still a newbie.


Thanks for your interest.

I don't think you can do it with an image that complicated.

If you want cheap stock images, go to http://www.sxc.hu/ or http://www.istockphoto.com/index.php;)

I believe the "removable watermark" is meant to denote that it is not part of the picture when you buy it. Not that it is removable from the image as is.

I figured as much.
Thanks.

It can be done, but you would need to find the same watermark on a black backgrounded image. then make a mask with it in photoshop and use it to "cancel out" the one on your image.

Not easy and there would be artifacts left behind

There is a special tool which helps to remove visible watermarks
photo stamp remover (http://www.softorbits.com/photo-stamp-remover/)
But I am not sure that it help you, your watermarks seams to be too complex.

There's two ways to remove it:

1) Buy the image.

2) Spend a good afternoon using the clone tool ;)

Or you could buy the artwork and stop stealing other people's hard work.

Now why do that? This would be called honesty and is not the "American" way. :rolleyes:

Before I get flamed, I was just kidding about the "American" way.

Yeah, I could do it. Would take a while but I've done worse. Not with watermarks, but I've cleaned up wadded up water stained images.
