Rotating an Image
I would like to change the perspective of cane toad. Would like to have it appear at a right angle to the viewer. Is it possible to "rotate" or give the illusion of rotation so that the toad is facing the viewer head-on? I tried several attempts at using the warp tool, but this seems to distort the toad too much. Is there another method to achieve this "rotation"? ![]() |

Rotating an Image
Here's my attempt with the steps I took Open and save as a new file Perspective crop right side, transform rotate to straighten Double canvas size Duplicate, right side, flip horizontal, align sides to give a complete toad From original roughly select left eye (as viewed), copy to image and position. Go around edge with eraser set to about 15% and blend in From original roughly select left leg (as viewed), copy to image and position. Go around edge with eraser set to about 15% and blend in Merge down, go around with clone tool set to 35% to eliminate mirror image of each side Transform size to get correct shape rufus ![]() |
