Essentially getting the text to match the underlying colour. There were a few artifacts remaining which I tried to clean up a bit. I've attached the result and the original for compariosn. I assume as we didn't classify the text as a watermark (no copyright info or instruction not to copy) this is acceptable to post but Mods please remove if not. I may have a go at doing a couple more if anyone is interested. Took about an hour in total to get it how I wanted so can't do the whole set or anything.
that's very impressive. i don't understand the technicalities of how that's possible but well done.

these two are the ones i'd like to see most without the lettering

what's really really odd, is when i save these two photos and look at the thumbnails, i can't see the lettering!! can anyone explain that?
