Hello,

would anybody be so kind and help me with this present im trying to make. Idea is to remove everything what isnt flower (lol) from that picture. But everything I touch in paint instantly turns into uglyness. I hope you understand what I'm trying to make and that someone will help me :).

I've done quite alot already using photoshop. Just to check, you want the whole flower, leaves & stem included?

I've had a quick go at doing what you asked, needs more work though but i have tried a couple of effects aswell. See what you think, i've got to go out now but i'll finish it when i get back.

This (http://i.imgur.com/kL6DP.gif) was my newb attempt with Paint.net, it was good practice, but note how the middle of the flower is cut to pieces so overzealously that it's as if a caffeinated spider (http://caffeineweb.com/wp-content/uploads/2006/02/CaffeinatedSpider.jpg) had a go at it. :D

Is not! It probably took me six times longer to make, you have to finish yours!
