Capped it off with an impromptu session that ended at 4am this morning in a basement tequila bar! Heading back to the southwest tomorrow to see the wife and kids and I’m very happy to do so. (Hopefully they’ll feel the same way ) Had no summer holiday with the family this year so heading to Croatia next weekend for a week! I have to say, I could’ve been in a lot worse places than Liverpool for the past few months and fortunate to catch some great live music (thanks too to @bickster for meeting up many times) Twas a pleasure, we had a blast! Enjoy the time away, you deserve more than a week! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amsterdam_Neil_D Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 Anyone good at photoshop with 5 mins to spare. It's the one thing I have no clue at software wise. I just need something cut out of a picture but I keep going over the lines and it's driving me mental.ta, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Start somewhere around the bit you want to cut out, and sorta draw your selection over the edge of where you want to cut out and it'll automatically work out what to select for you - though it does rely on there being some "decent" definition between the bits you want to cut out.

You post the picture and the VT artists will sort you out a treat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't really, its my 5 yo granddaughter as a ninja. I wanted to do like the Naked Gun "Nothing to see here"(where there is explosions in the background and stuff) type picture" but I need her cutting out so I can paste it (I think).

Genie Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 a man being stabbed top death is generally not a cause for happiness, however, in this case its bloody brilliant news. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-50042406 Quote A British man jailed for numerous sex crimes against Malaysian children has been found stabbed to death in prison. Richard Huckle, from Ashford, Kent, abused as many as 200 children. In 2016, he was given 22 life sentences after admitting 71 charges of sex abuse of children aged between six months and 12 years, between 2006 and 2014. It is understood he was attacked in his cell at Full Sutton Prison, near York, with what was described as a makeshift knife. His trial at the Old Bailey in 2016 heard that investigators who checked his computer found more than 20,000 indecent pictures and videos of his assaults. Hopefully they don't find who did it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was interesting that in the BBC article they didn't comment on who might've done it, an investigation, arrests or alike. Prison Officer: "so, who did it? Prison Officer: "nobody wants to own up?" Prison Governor: "not enough evidence, case closed". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sharkyvilla Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 Found out today from my mate's ex-girlfriend that he likes the 'Stefan Postma' I'm going to enjoy making vague references to it to make him paranoid that I know his secret. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All good, I have completed this task I didn't know you could change the zoom when cutting around stuff (I thought you had to have the whole image in view or something to make it unnecessarily difficult for myself, not sure why) Nice one, I am really please with the result.
