I was trying to use the magic wand and then inverting but it is not removing the text.
I tried the clone stamp but it's on a tile background so very hard to make it look good. I just want to redo the text because it was written by someone that does not speak English/American.
Thanks in advance for your help
Basically, the Vanishing Point filter allows you to identify the perspective in part of an image, then clone from other parts that are at a different distance; it takes care of the scaling. It's pretty slick, though I've always thought it would be better integrated directly into Photoshop rather than being in a plug-in type format.
The other day I used it on a photo of a series of statues of archers. The one on the end was missing part of her bow...

There is a great Vanishing point tutorial in the You Suck at Photoshop series, and it is as funny as all of those tutorials.

[EDIT] I had forgotten how funny that was. Go Donny!!!
That is a particularly clever example, but the cool trick at the end is more about Free Transform, and an image with a nice flat horizon, a clear perspective, and no detail in the desert around the train and tracks. Without those image charicteristics, the Free Transform of the background layer copy would not have dissapeared so seamlessly into the distance.
Going back to Vanishing Point, our Mr R Kelly did a fine job, but there is not enough information in the image for an easy fix. Add in the shadow of the oerson carying the coffee cup, and highlights to either side of her, then it's a tricky fix, and I am not surprised talbot was having problems with it. I think an easier fix would be
If you had more information in the original that was posted here, that could make it heaps easier.
I was able to figure it out and yes, used the clone stamp on the jacket.
With the vanishing point tooI created a plain that extended up the side walk and then selected the top area with no text copied and dragged it over the text. Then I used the Healing brush to clean it up a little.
Looks pretty good.
Great lesson too, thanks for everyone's help!
