# TJ:
in tatty shop is it possible to cut corners on an image to smooth them out...?

I have a logo i need to reproduce...
the font is Franklin gothic but the previous designer rounded the sharp corners...
is there an easy way to do this other than creating an arc shaped highlight and deleting the corners?

*edit* sorry.... how rude of me... loverly fluff

*edit2* pussy..... box..... pussy..... box..... pussy..... box..... pussy..... box..... pussy..... box..... pussy..... box..... pussy..... box..... pussy..... box..... pussy..... box..... pussy..... box..... *esplodes*

# erm,
not too sure what you're asking but try selecting the text
with the magic wand and then from the selection menu
pick smooth selection

then invert the selection ctrl-alt-I and then ctrl X it

# nah... i'll get an image...


the top one is my text... the bottom one is the source image... see how the corners of the t are curved out... i've already got the outer glow sorted

# yeah
you could rasterise the text, ctrl-select the layer to get the outline, use Select-Modify-Smooth to round off the edges, invert, delete.

Ah, ummm, ignore me... :)
