How do I get a transparent overlay off of a picture I just downloaded off the internet?

Question

I just downloaded a picture off Shane Mccutcheon (from The L Word) and want to set it as my phone's wallpaper, but the is a transparent "L" overlay on her neck. How do I get it off?

Answer 1

Thats a watermark. People use those so people dont use their imaging without them getting credit for it.

So you kinda cant unless you edit the photo and use a SMUDGE tool or something. or google the image and see if you cant find another version.



Anotehr alternative is go to tineye.com -upload the image and it will search the internet for the same image maybe ull find one without the watermark.

Answer 2

Simple you can remove it(the water mark ) by uploading it on tinyeye.com

and then search for a similar pic without it.

Answer 3

try to use Adobe Photoshop CS5

Answer 4

select the L, adjust the alpha %., mess with brightness/darkness levels maybe.

Answer 5

Use Photoshop to cover it up.
