gemini-logo-remover_skill

Overview

This skill removes Gemini logos, AI watermarks, or other small logos from images using OpenCV inpainting. It provides simple functions to remove a specified rectangular region by coordinates or to target common corners (top/bottom, left/right). The goal is quick, local cleanup for images where logos are small and backgrounds are reasonably uniform.

How this skill works

The skill reads the image with OpenCV, builds a binary mask for the logo area, and applies OpenCV inpainting (Telea method) to fill the masked region from surrounding pixels. You can supply exact coordinates, or use corner-based ratios and padding to automatically target typical logo positions. Small masks and appropriate inpainting radius produce the best results.

When to use it

• Remove a Gemini logo or similar small watermark in the image corner.
• Clean up AI-generated image markers when the logo covers a small, uniform background area.
• Prepare images for presentations, mockups, or testing when a quick local edit is acceptable.
• When you can manually estimate coordinates or use corner-based ratios for logo placement.

Best practices

• Prefer small mask areas; inpainting quality drops as masked area grows.
• Inspect image dimensions first and adjust w_ratio/h_ratio or coordinates accordingly.
• Use padding to avoid trimming visible content; iterate with different radius values (e.g., 3–7).
• Save results to a separate output path and keep the original image unchanged.
• Test both INPAINT_TELEA and INPAINT_NS if results are unsatisfactory.

Example use cases

• Remove a Gemini star logo located near bottom-right by specifying coordinates or using bottom_right corner with w_ratio/h_ratio.
• Batch-clean images with consistent logo placement by scripting corner-based removal and fixed ratios.
• Quickly remove a small watermark before composing a presentation slide.
• Repair a stamped AI marker on product photos where the background is simple and uniform.
