Hi, I'm Gary for Expert Village. So, I?m going to go ahead and continue doing that, just
by clicking the left mouse. And just scrolling over the image. Now the brush size which is
really - it's the eraser, but it goes by brush size, which is that little circle that we
see - it can be made bigger and smaller. So, when I'm dealing with an image, now the only
area that I really want to apply this effect to is basically right here around the mouth
and nose on the face. So this whole entire image - everything else- can pretty much be
erased. Therefore, I want to make my brush size a little bigger. And it'll make it much
easier and quicker to erase the parts of the image that I want to take away from applying
that effect to. So the way that we do that is, there's a brackets key. There's two brackets
key, they're actually next to the letter "P" on your keyboard. And the right bracket makes
the brush size bigger. We see as I'm clicking it, we see that the circle is actually growing.
And that is going to erase much larger areas of our image. As you see here on the bottom,
I can just go one full swoop and just really take out most of this bottom part of the image.
And we can make it smaller by pressing on the left bracket, and it gets smaller. And
that's good for going around more detail when we want to be very careful on the parts that
we're erasing. So I'm going to go ahead and, using my- using the brackets key I'm going
to start erasing images- parts of the image. And you might have to just keep clicking.
Usually you can hold down the mouse, but if you see that it's not going on the screen,
you might just want to give another click. And I'm basically taking out all of the areas
that are not affected by this- the skin issue that we're trying to clear up. Now I have
a little bit of areas here on the forehead, so I'm not going to erase those. I'm going
to apply the effect to those areas as well. And the nice thing about it is you really
don't have to be so, so exact and get right onto the edges of the area that you're looking
to apply the effect to. And that's because the effect is not so pronounced. It's a blur,
and so it doesn't really matter where those edges are. As long as you're close enough,
and you don't want to do anything that is doing to make the image distorted. But as
long as you just really get close enough, you can see that the effect will have a nice
results to it, and you don't really have to worry about how close you came to the actual
area.
