Hmmm... I didn't know about defringing. Must look into it. :rtfm:

Those pics look pretty convincing, Eric. Clients must be pleased.

So are you into boxing yourself Rich?


I reckon some of those guys should borrow Tiffanne's top.

But dont tell them I said so.

:rofl:




Yes - unfortunately! I went away over Easter and lost a bit of ground. Sparring has been very hard since I got back. Whatever our relevant shapes the overall fitness of the group is pretty good. I'm the least fit of the group I can run rings around most regular gym goers in their forties at the minute. Boxing is much more demanding than I ever realised.

Isnt it for the Jockeys Trust Charity?

Yes - the change the charity up each time. Last one was for save the children, Jockeys Trust looks after injured jockeys - many of whom are left in dire need.

They are certainly relieved to have been gotten out of hole... £150k sales plan was in jeopardy. They haven't received my bill yet....I did over 50!

Defringing is a softening of the surface edges. Applied once with enough pixel width selection it can remove white cutout remnants. But it's not foolproof. I've never used the refine edge feature in CS 5/6 it may be better. But as an old dog I still use my tried and tested actions. It may be no better than the new techniques but I can do it without thinking at the press of an assigned function button. When you have 50 intricate cutouts to do every shortcut helps.

I did some boxing at school...but back then everything was effortless. I bet I would now need a chairlift to get in the ring.

Eric's photoshop work is truly excellent. Those images are so well re-constructed that they are worth whatever he charges his customer.

I've not been posting much lately - I have taken up a new activity (building to a charity event) that I have never done before - once it's over I never will again either!

So Rich...do I read that you have taken up boxing just for one event?
