x How Do I Remove/Replace Text In A Picture x

[-x-harley-x-]

x Hey Thanks For Reading This :) I Was Wondering If Anyone Knows How To Remove Or Replace Writing In A Picture? Like I Put Text Over My Pics So People Cant Steal Them, But Just Say I Accidently Deleted The Original Picture.That Means All I Would Have Left Is The Text Picture. Is There Any Way Of Removing The Text? Or Replacing The Text With Other Text That I Want The Picture To Say? Heres A Picture Of Me For Example, I Have Blocked Out The Text By Using Paint, But Its Completley Destroyed The Pic So Is There Any Way Of Getting Rid Of The Text Without Removing The Picture With It? Or Replacing The Text With Something Else That I Want It To Say Instead Of The Things That It Already Says? Thank Youuuuu xxxx x

Anyone Know Or Is It Just Impossible To Do? xxx

Is it really necessary to capitalize every word?

With simple images (that is image files that contain no layer information), once you overlay part of the original image with text, the part you covered up is gone. The only way to restore the original is to use a graphics program to "paint" over the text with something that looks like the original image. Often the "clone brush" can help with this in simple images, but when the text covers a detailed part of the image, it takes great skill to remove it, and even then, you have only an approximation of what the original image was - not the actual original image.

If you use a program like Photoshop or Gimp to create your images, you can keep the image itself in one layer and the text in another, which makes it a snap to edit or remove your text. However, if you lost the originals, you would still be sunk.

Although you did not use one of my images, the question you have asked is the sort of question I would expect from the pillocks who have been nicking my photos to use on their sites - I attempt to prevent this by placing text on the image which they will hopefully find difficult or beyond their limited skills to remove. Of course they never had the original so suffer from the same problem as you do.
