Remove tags from pics

Could anyone tell me or post a tutorial on how to remove tags from pics?

Many thanks

Sometimes this let me nervous.

When the tag is up or down, it's easy. But in the middle, only photoshop.

That's it. Photoshop (or similar), layers and clone tool.

In this case, the dress, arms and background are relatively easy. The hair takes a little more time.

Thanks for the tips guys but perhaps I would prefer to read how to do it step by step or to see a video.

I'm a total newbie in Photoshop

You could start with this one:

Anyway, I would recommend working on a new layer. "Undoing" is easier.


Edit: I can't embed the clip.

Removing tags from agency pictures is only ok if you're not going to reproduce them anywhere... if they are just for your own collection. Otherwise you are breaking copyright laws.

Hey charles, its not easy to do at all. Takes a lot of time and doesnt always seem to work. Works better on a larger photos say x1000, and on photos with solid colors. I tried it on this one, its wasnt easy on the dress part. I use the clone tool and smug tool.

Why than do competing forums tag agency pics and random pics as their own ? I feel just because they feel they are "first" does not give them rights to tag. Or credit.
