This is a scan from a t-shirt:

I was wondering if anyone could help me and I'm willing to PayPal someone some money for their help. I want to use this as the opening splash screen to my website.
First, you can tell it's been scanned from a t-shirt by the many pixelated colors within. That needs to be corrected. Just looking at the image now, like the N in New for example.. you can see darkness in the orange and other colors pixelated in. Need to keep the same basic shade of retroish orange, maybe brightened up a little, but all one smooth color.
Second, I did most of the work cutting out the original blue background, but some of the lettering isn't straight. For instance look at the first A in vacation. Looks like crap. Originally what I was going to do was select the background, but because of the other interpolinated colors you can't select much of an area at one time (such as above with the letter N), so all the background coloring I did by hand so far. I want the background to be black.
Third, I want to animate the smoke coming out with 4 or 5 frames.. a few more if necessary. For now this will be the splash screen to my website and I'll write "under development" below that, then when I get the main site done it'll say "click to enter".
