I want to remove unwanted images from my main image using photoshop CSS3. I found content-aware technique to deal with issue. However when I am opening fill option from edit menu its not showing content-aware option in my dropdown box.

I am using Photoshop CS3.

How can I deal with issue?

If I remember correctly content aware fill was added to Photoshop in version CS5 (and improved in CS6) - so, you're only options are to either upgrade Photoshop or find a non-content-aware solution.

Correct. You will have to stick to old fashioned cloning, OP. – ElendilTheTall Jan 29 at 8:54
Thanks Nir....I'll search for another non-content-aware solution – Ultimate Jan 29 at 10:13
IMO it's more accurate if you just clone it... – Omne Jan 29 at 11:33
What I do is paste a selection of similar background over the object, mask it in, so that what you are starting with is more similar, then do your cloning. – MikeW Jan 29 at 19:15

Content Aware fill was introduced in Photoshop CS5 and is also available in an improved version of CS6.

CS4 can do a content aware scaling but that is pretty much it.

Your CS3 version does therefore not even have that option. I would recommend you to either buy/upgrade CS5/6 or try without it by using GIMP and the resynthesizer which is a free alternative.
