    In addition to all the retouching I had to do of this birthday party pic (8 yr olds are not renowned for sitting still, and I had to do a LOT of body replacement), I wound up with a few unwanted heads in the picture. Instead of trying to clone them out, I added party balloons.

    I think it works.

    And oh, yeah, the kid with the Nike T-shirt isn't wearing one. That was the work of XARA X.

    My Best,
    Gare

    I might be blind, but where is the Nike shirt??? I'm looking for the logo, but maybe that's totally wrong? Anything else to indentify a Nike shirt??

    Otherwise it's a real good one!

    thanks for the hint. So Nike does have a different approach in the US. In Euorpe the fashion always features the typical Nike swash.

    Thanks folks.

    Part of the trick to retouching is to make it imperfect. That's why it was hard to find the Nike T-shirt. I didn't want it out in the open to heavily examine.

    Come to think of it, this should probably be posted on the PSG, right Mark?

    My Best,
    Gare
