How many seconds did it take? maybe 10?
Doing it properly while still preserving a natural look only takes 20 seconds.
You're method may be good for thumbnails and for cartoons but for full sized images it totally destroyed her face and made it look like she was made of clay.
Nice try though and thanks for the helpful info. I never knew what that specific blur tool did until now. May come in handy for other things.
Keep plugging away at it.
Play with the brightness/contrast, grey fill, healing brush tool, lasso, magic wand tool and gaussian blur. It's really easy and quick. Once you get used to them you can correct an image and clean up a girl's skin in 20 seconds without disturbing the entire shape of her face and background. Thumbs can bit longer due to cropping and brightness/contrast needing to be more precise but with pre programmed action I am able to do one thumb every 25 seconds.
