Celeste,

There are usually lots of similar coloured pixels near each other and when you use the colour picker on something like this it doesn’t always give you a good match. Try changing the settings of the colour picker to 5 X 5 that gives a wider sample. Select the colour picker then look at the top of the screen … there is a box that says sample size and you change it there.

Hope this helps 🙂

thanks Wendy,
I did some more looking around the net and found a free tutorial site that help me.
It explained how to use the eye dropper to select the pixel color and add it to the swatches. This appears to be what I was looking for, all I have to do now is to work out what pixels to change to make it look good and test print.
The site is www.photoshoproadmap.com
