[QUOTE="vlaha, post: 1927341, member: 56398"]I would do it like this: 1. Cut out a circular area around the coin using the elliptical select (Ctrl x,) 2. Delete layer (should be in the task bar to the right.) 3. Paste layer (Ctrl v) 4. Zoom in and freehand the edges (using the magnifying glass and pen respectably) 5. Right click on the bar to the right, do it under the current layer, a drop down menu should appear, click on create new layer, when the options come up, select white from the "layer fill type". 6. In the same bar click and drag the new layer and place it under the coin layer. 7. Use use the paint bucket to fill in the white layer. 8. Touch up. Or... 1. Zoom in and freehand the edges (using the magnifying glass and pen respectably) 2. Use paint bucket to fill in various aspects of the backround. 3. Touch up. I prefer method one because it makes it combining the obverse/reverse photos less of a pain. [ATTACH=full]331891[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
