using the Pattern Stamp Tool on an image.
The Eraser Tool

portions of an image. When working on the
background layer, it erases the pixels to transparency.

layer is removed to expose the pixels in the
background layer.
The Background Eraser Tool:

Incase of multi layered images, the pixels are erased to
the background layer.
Magic Eraser Tool
 Can be compared to the Magic Wand Tool, which is
used to select similar colored areas in an image based
on tolerance setting.
 The magic Eraser tool is used to erase pixels from
similar colored areas of an image, the similarity of
pixels being based on the tolerance value.
The Blur Tool
 The blur tool makes an image blurry or softened. It
works by reducing the contrast between the pixels and
can be useed to smoothen the jagged edges
The Sharpen Tool
 The Sharpen tool is used to increase the contrast and
clarity of the blur images with soft edges.
The Smudge Tool

image. Dark portions of an image may be made lighter
to improve the appearance.
The Burn Tool
