Need help with text....

I would like to use this old movie poster as a desktop wallpaper for christmas But, would like to remove the text and leave the snow... How could I do this? I am a complete NUB with photoshop so I thought I would come here for help. Any help is thank full. Thank you.

I am sorry to say, but this one is going to take a little more time to make it look good,
but what you can do is use the clone stamp tool, and clone areas with out text over the areas with text,
The clone stamp tool is a reall gem, I like to use a super soft brush with a mid range opacity to make the blending ever so smooth and seamless.

To set the clone stamp tool, it is the stamp icon inbetween the eraser and the bandaid,with this tool selected, hover over a spot that you want to copy to another spot, and hold down Alt/Option, and you will see a cross hair, click there and you will have selected that part of the image to clone to another part to the image, now when you start to paint over the text, you will see the little sample area where your stamp tool is sampeling from, use this to know what pixals you are painting with.

in this case you will need to do alot of sampelin, for the dark areas, for the snow, for the chimeny, and so on.

Good luck
