Cuddlebuddy wanted a tut on removing wires so here it is. I used his photo "Cute Little House".
1. Right click on the Lasso tool and select the "Polygonal lasso tool".
2. Select an area of sky just above or below the wire. Try to make it reasonably thin and the photoshopping won't be as obvious.
3. Under the "Layer" menu, select "New-> Layer via copy".
4. Move the new layer down (or up if you selected an area below the wire) and move it over the top of the wire to hide it. My selection wasn't quite big enough to cover all the wire so I just duplicated it again (via "Layer -> Duplicate layer) and used the duplicate to help hide the wire.
5. Link all the layers and merge them.
6. Now select the clone stamp tool and use it to clean up any messy/obvious bits. It's easier if you zoom in a bit.
7. Finally I used the clone stamp to remove the TV antenna. It's pretty easy when you have an even background like the blue sky in this photo.
This whole process probably took about 5 minutes. You will get a better result if you take more time and do it carefully...
