I have a picture I want to create a pattern with but need to take out the name and the surrounding of the picture. Anyone know how to do this or be able to clean it up for me?

glgale,

Hi, and welcome!

If you're using a computer, I can point you to two very powerful and free graphics programs that will help you edit your original image so you can make the changes you want.

If you're on a mobile device, I'm not sure what's available, but you could search for something such as "graphics editor" to see what's out there.

Thank You
