User blog:Percy (IhorPrTV)/Some Questions about Photoshop

Since today, I've been using MS Paint, MS Office PowerPoint and MS Picture Manager to make my video. And as you can see, my production rate is very low. So I decided to start using Photoshop. But because I don't know very many things about it, I want to ask some questions before starting using using it:

1. How do you erase the letters from the map without distorting its surface. I mean, erase the letters and simultaneously not changing the map, not eraseing islands, coastlines etc.

2. How do you add textures? (I need this info for mapping: the movie 2)

If there is something else I may want to ask you, I will post it here.

EDIT: I made this sample, but the letters look wrong to me. Please tell me how I can fix it.



Thanks,

Percy, greek/hellenic mapper
