I've been trying to come to terms with changing a color in a bitmap photo. I've watched all the videos I can find but mostly no luck. Any suggestions??
EDIT: USED CONTENT AWARE to spot the colors but that is as far as I can go then I get stuck.

Larry, basically you start with the Select colours to enhance icon.
When it is depressed, you click the image with the largest spread of the colour you want to alter.
Holding down the left button turns that colour chequered so you can move the blob around until you reach peak coverage and release.
You can then tweak this a bit by clicking the dropdown arrow to the right of the icon and twiddle Tolerance and Fade.
The finale is selecting the Photo hue icon, picking an approximate new colour and finally sliding the Strength control around.

Some of it shows brown cardboard which I want to change to black some of the room shows on the left side which I want to remove and it is real dark but I can deal with that easy enough. I guess for the purposes of the post this will be an image manipulation.Quote:

Also a color overlay using the Color transparency option can change the color.
Thanks GP this is also a good tip, what I have done so far is make a black shape to cover the parts I want black and that seems to work well it's the changing the colors of the flowers that has been a thorn in my side, from what I have seen in the videos I watched it should be easy but so far not. Guess I'm gettring stupid in my old age and it's difficult to figure things out nowadays.Quote:
