removing text from images…

hi,

a friend recently let me d/l his photoshop (version 7.0) and i have been tinkering with images since then… one thing that i would really like to do is edit existing album and magazine covers, but the problem with these items is the tendency for them to have a lot of text that tends to cover important parts of the image… does photoshop have any way around this, i.e. possibly a way to remove the text? i know about the layer properties, but the images i get from the internet all seem to have all of the information contained in one layer (the background)
an example of a pic i would like to edit would be this one
www.lyred.com/covers/ mos_def_-_black_star.jpg

i like the red-to-green underlying color change, the wood motif and the way the faces are integrated into the image, but the words are right in the image…. is there possibly any way i could remove them while preserving the underlying information? any help would be greatly appreciated… also if anyone could recommend some good photoshop tutorials that would be swell as well… thanx

The "Remove Text" plugin was in the Plugin directory on your friend’s computer. He should have given it to you.

Of course, you can remove text from images. Have you thought about what you’;re going to put in the letter-shaped holes left behind?

Not that easy. It binds with the eprom and stays with the original installation computer. You need a chip puller. The Remove Text option is bundled with the Remove Clothes plugin. Jeeze, be careful and don’t get it cross-compiled with your web-cam.

In the update it is all software based. No hardware. You are old-school.

Sure, sure. The software version has wear-bits. The more often you load the program, the more worn the bits get. Eventually that new ‘soft’ware needs the Viagra plugin. See how it goes?

I wonder if, from the other replies, you are yet getting the idea that not a great deal of help is forthcoming for those who steal rather than legitimately purchase their software?
Thanks for listening.
