The photo:

i would appreciate it if my lips looked as close to mine as possible, this picture is the only one i own that i am not smiling in, to give you an idea of my lips shape.

Heres a "should be real easy" version, hope it helps

Corey, iDad makes a good point. I almost said something myself. Too many people who don't use Photoshop or similar programs assume something will be "easy" or "quick," etc. But truly have no idea. Maybe it is; maybe it isn't. Especially if we want to give you quality results.

Just a head's up for you and others.

You're forgiven! :devilish:

Um ... you have a cell phone or a friend with one, don't you?

Then why don't you just walk outside and take a new, really nice picture of yourself with your lips closed?

Taking a new picture will take a few seconds of your time (which is appropriate since you are the one benefiting from the effort) *versus* asking a group of people (who will derive absolutely no benefit) to each spend anywhere between 10 minutes and a half hour tweaking your existing, out-of-focus shot.

Is there something special about this shot that we don't know? Is it really you in the shot?

@Tom, this is why myself and no doubt everyone else who replies to these type of requests do what we do to them, i make my versions silly small with little additions (crack chin - one of my watermark specials) if people are going to come here with no commitment to this site other than getting something over a friend or even something for themselves then they should expect a little bitch slapping in return.
They can always use our excellent freelance section if they are truly serious can't they.

Hi, Paul - I understand the silly responses, but I fear that many posters with bad intent will not, so I prefer a direct approach. That way, if they can come up with some credible answer as to why they are asking for something that potentially could be deceptive, I might give them the benefit of the doubt.

Totally agree with your logic Tom, each to there own as my old metalwork teacher once said while showing us how to cut metal pipes with an hacksaw.

Your old teacher would have really liked me - You know I always use a cold chisel and a sledgehammer for everything whether it's on the forum or on a pipe. :rofl:

Corey...........seriously? You camera is wrecked? In any given household there are a minimum of three smart phones with a camera! You have to have friends! None of them with phones? Not buying it mate.
