Also just starting to mess around with overlay. You'd think after having photoshop for several years now that I would've figured that out a while back, but whatevs.
Since I got new photoshop (used to have elements 2.0) i've been inspired to explore. and i also discovered layer styles.
i jizzed at "stroke" (no pun intended. at first.) it's really convenient.

Okay.
Call 1-800-295-0051. This is the nestle chocolate hotline. After they present you with language options, say nothing for about ten seconds. After you finish laughing at that, press 4. After hearing all the options and laughing some more, press 7.
I guarantee this is worth looking into

haha bubble wrap and a noogie

The Photoshop 'content aware fill'.

Going through the comments I can see that a lot people are freaking out about this and saying that theyll be 'out of the job'.To be honest Im not worried because Im aiming for a better design job than just photoshopping out unwanted scenery all day.

Yeah would be downright hilarious to test out on some of my pieces where the figure vanishes or was fully complete.

Content Aware Fill

That's a neat trick. But doesn't it bug anyone else that it's fine and dandy to print manipulated photos in the first place without some kind of disclaimer? Why is it peoples jobs to edit photos for commercial consumption? Seriously, are we so fragile that anything less than a perfect photograph will shatter our conceptions of reality? Boo! I want reality not some fakey bullshit world! >=[

I agree with you there Kraig. Unfortunately, people are stupid and fickle and materialistic, and overall prefer to imagine themselves in an unachievable imagination than live in an imperfect world.

I'm wondering how well it would work with handdrawn material. like more 'cartoony' graphics or 'painterly' graphics.

I think it's cool too but it will mostly be used for advertising. But still, i'm interested in how it copes with more handdrawn stuff. That would make people EXTREMELY lazy. ie. drawing a ton of detail and then basically filling that calculated, random detail into another area (waves, fish, trees, etc). Then it would look like you drew all those details when really you didn't.

I can't wait to test it out but i do agree. with photographs it can really alter one's view. With handdrawn artwork it could make people lazy. I still want to try it out to see what it can do though.

I think its more an afront to photography in general that they can now be even more lazy. Ive never had much respect for photography after the invention of digital photographs and photoshop because you can take a piss poor image and make it look stellar, which is more a testament of your digital manipulation skills than your photography skills.

Well a lot of artists who you respect for their supreme amount of detail you will find have lazy ways around it. Take Escher for example. All those badass tessellations and crazy perspective pieces with a million objects receding in space he has... yeah those are prints. This means that he would take a plate or stone or whatever, do the detail in a tiny section of it, then just stamp the rest of the page with it to fill the space.

Both, although he is aware of the thread anyway. He didnt post in there because he isnt paying and more just came to the art forum because thats where the artists are. I would throw the rules at him and the thread, but do it nicely, then comply with his request anyway. I mean he should have at least had some sorry attempt at a starting pic to not break all the rules :P

Ah wow, didn't know that. Lots of detail takes time and it's wonderful when someone can get the lighting and focus correct across a large piece of scenery or texture. I realize detail can only go so far and by that point it's just how much time is willing to be put into it, maybe not necessarily skill, but there are fair amounts of both. I'm just thinking about paintings, cityscapes, landscapes, etc. If you painted only a few buildings in detail and then had photoshop randomly fill in other ones along a path, that would just be fas;dkfj;sdjf!!
