Subject: How can i make this symmetrical?
I could be wrong, but I think it is about as symmetrical as you are going to get. :)

Yup... best always to line the camera up perpendicularly. But sometimes it is just impossible. Then the photoshop tools really come in handy. Great job, onslow. This would look fantastic if done on the original high resolution image. [In the olden days, lenses and camera backs would swing and tilt and slide.]
thanks a LOT, Richard!!! ah-ha...deform tool!!! i forgot about that!!! i haven't used that one too much. i'll give this a try tomorrow and see if i can't fix it up!!! I really appreciate your help!!! yup, Misha, you're right...sometimes just impossible. this was one helluva a hard shot for me to do with one arm in a cast and without a tripod. yep, thank goodness for our shop of tools!!! :) hmmm, well i did photography back in the olden days, but i remember very little of it. pity...
i am like the only one who doesn't have PotatoShop? Well, actually, i think we have it. i'll have to ask kemal. i think he says we have it but says PSP7 is more user-friendly. and i'm gonna ask kemal to install more filters. He's got WAY more than i do. Yep...gonna do that! ok donald, fess up. tell me how to cheat please if i can do it with PSP7. THANK YOU!!!

Short version: 1) Rotate image 1.5 degrees clockwise 2) Cloned wall sections to fill the now blank spots 3) Copied the right half of the image and pasted it on a layer above 4) Flipped the image horizontally and positioned it to make it look symmetrical 5) Used lasso tool to pull the left side's cap to a new layer 6) Resized the layer so that it fit over the reversed copied right half (so that the text would be right) 7) Some cloning hear and there to make things match up and to also break up that who "mirror" look (like cloning out or adding some rust flecks, paint, scratches, etc.) -=>Donald

hi guys. here's another one-arm shot i took last weekend with the monthly challenge in mind. i'm not satisfied with this. i hate that it's not symmetrical. i tried rotating the image but still couldn't get it to look the way i wanted. it took too much from the top. any suggestions? thanks guys!
