sometimes we have a tilted photograph and adjust it with the rotation and crop. well, sometimes the crop must be very near the border of the frame and a piece of the frame will white or black(if this is the background color). Is allowed fill this white/black area with the clone? probably this depend from how many big is the area. for a decent extension I think that the answer should be:
1)Basic No
2)Advanced yes(but little area)
3)Expert yes

| I would personally find it acceptable, but I think a strict interpretation of the advanced rules would make it illegal. It could be considered to be adding elements that were not already there. |

| I know exactly what you mean but the idea of these limited editing things is to make you shoot it right in the first place. Besides it would be impossible to govern. i.e. how much is to much. Expert editing maybe though. |

From Advanced rules;
You may NOT:
use ANY editing technique to create new image area, objects or features (such as lens flare or motion) that didn’t already exist in your original capture(s).
Expert doesn't say anything about it either way. |

I've been wondering this myself, wouldn't it be covered under this rule?
From advanced ruleset:
You may
use software to correct perspective, lens defects, or minor misalignments. |

This is not allowed in basic editing.
This IS allowed in Advanced editing.
Make sure you DO NOT skew the image when rotating it.

It's been done in advanced editing and allowed.

Actually, there IS an advanced-legal way to correct for this and maintain the framing; it's called the "skew tool" Using this tool, you only lose image area on one side of the frame, instead of all 4 sides — unless you have to skew in 2 directions, in which case you lose image area on two sides of the frame. This technique works very well on tightly-cropped, wide angle landscapes where the horizon is not quite level. It doesn't work real well a lot of the time when what you are correcting for is objects within the frame that are quite prominent, such as people or architecture, as it can distort them pretty obviously.
