Thanks very much.

I try and use both the clone stamp and the healing brush to smooth over the patterns caused by the clone stamp, but maybe that means I'm not using the clone tool effectively.

I would

If I wasn't a poor college student. I'm stuck using a laptop which adds whole other hurdle to jump.

yeah it's got to be hard doing these on a laptop.
Regarding the clone tool, in my experience it's very sensitive to brush adjustments, so if it's not doing what you want, it's definitely worth playing around with different brush types.

thanks again

I know experimenting is the best way to learn on PS but it started to feel like I had exhausted every alley way so I had to resort to asking for tips. I never have played around with the brushes with the clone tool... don't know why I'd never thought of it.

Honestly, I've gotten so much help just by asking

and I'm always happy to pay that back. Just ask or gaz if you're stuck or whatever. I don't know everything but I've got a fair knowledge of some aspects of PS.
