    Do any of you've particularly good skills with photoshop? I've a nice picture of Verdy'n'I that a friend took at prom, and I've managed to do some of the cleaning-up to it that I wanted to do (she happens to look stunning, but I went through and removed the visible acne, as well as all of the moles we had that were visible. I know that's an odd things to do, but, well, he used a REALLY high-quality camera, and all of the moles/zits that were visible were very, well, visible. Brown/pink spots on white-skinned people. They stood out. I mean, the pictures good enough that you can get close enough to see our damn pores. Anyway, now I'll get to the point: I came up with a really cute caption to put on it, and want to post it here (Verdy allowing, but of course), and on her myspace, but what I really want, prior to that, is to've the background changed to black and white. I request that whoever volunteers to do this doesn't post/show this picture to anyone. It'sn't dirty, but the friend who took it is a professional photographer, and while I don't think he'd mind about my tweaking it at all, I don't really want him mad at me, thinking that I'm distributing it. I'm going to spend the rest of the night toying with it, and try to get it to look nicer than it does (btw, it's a 400/kb jpeg). Lastly, I'd ask that whoever attempts to turn it to black'n'white background has at least CS2, or equivalent (though I don't think such a thing exists). I don't really want to've someone send me the pic back, and to see that the background has been repainted with ms paint. Thank you in advance for your help, and sorry if you read this, but'ren't able to do anything. You just read an enormous post pointlessly.

    p.s: I posted this on HoL as well, if you've an account on both, please only respond on one.

    Who's Verdy'n, are they female and is she hot?

    CS2?

    Depending on how bad the background is, it doesn't sound like it'd be hard, even in my copy of PSP8 (the background eraser tool is awesome). Although I'm curious as to why you can't do it yourself?

    Verdy? Verdeeld? My girlfriend? Who plays CN with us? Oh, she is female, and she is hot. :) Japes did a good job of fixing the background up for me, but if you want to give a shot, I can post a link to the pic here, or email it to you, or something.

    Sorry, I'm not following you.

    Oh well if Japes has done it I don't care then. If you decide to choose Japes over me, that's your choice. I'm not to blame for that. The responsibility rests entirely on your shoulders.
