Subject: PS Question.
I'd ask this in the Photoshop forum, but nobody likes me over there.:-)
Say you have a picture of a camera body and you want to make an out line
of
that body. Is there a way to extract say a mm or mm and a bit of the
outside edge or do you just
trace around it with the pencil tool and clean up the edges with
transform or such.
I won't be around a computer with PS on it for a day or two, so i thought
i best ask incase i start
off doing something the hard way first.<g>
Dave, I made a mistake in my instructions.
Put the camera on a white background and photograph it.
Do a magic wand selection of the background, invert the selection
and stroke it with a several pixel stroke. Then cut the selection and you
will be left with an outline as wide as the stroke.
Sorry about that.
