    Guys, Need advise quick. See attached image. I need to change the color to white and apply it to a cabinet front to show a client at a meeting this afternoon.
    Any idea how to remove, balance or blend the shadows that show from the right-hand side?
    Thank you thank you!!

      is this the largest size you have? it'd be easier to work with if it were bigger..

      here's a quick hack job to show what you're after is possible.. if this is the only size you have, i'll attempt a cleaner version with it..

      oh, and do you have photoshop? if so, i'll explain what i'm doing.. i don't know how to do it with a different image editor.

        I did two hack jobs. If Jeff's doesn't work, would mine?

        And here's the second one almost seamless.

          oh, i'm going to refrain from attempting a second version btw. πŸ˜†

          dave's are probably exactly what you're after

              Jeff, you should go ahead and try. Mine aren't really that good.

              Andrew, I have Photo Shop Elements and I used Enhance>Adjust Lighting to try to even out the highlight side and the shadow side. Then I converted the image to black and white and adjusted the Red intensity slider up a little bit. To be honest, there's probably a better way. I'm only just learning how to use PSE and had never done this before. Purely beginner's luck. 😳
