  • HI folks the server that hosts the site completely died including the Hdd's and backups.
    Luckily i create an offsite backup once a week! this has now been restored so we have lost a few days posts.
    im still fixing things at the moment so bear with me and im still working on all images 90% are fine the others im working on now
    we are now using a backup solution

Picture re-touch

This one's a bit too ragged maybe but I wonder if you guys would like to have a go, it's a wedding photo of my 85 year old neighbour's parent's wedding and the only one she has.

Well that's a fair bit better John, I see there's a scribbled note on the back of the original that says "Dennis Miriam and the two bridesmaids but they haven't come out very well." so it looks as though the original wasn't good.
It's only a 3" by 2" snapshot.
 
Thanks for the effort OM I'm surprised that you managed to improve it so much.
I can actually recognise the groom now, he was one of my first customers in his Standard Pennant when I moved here from Brum.:)
 
Could any of you kind members give my daughter (middle girl) a fringe similar to her mother on her right. Thank you, Pauline x.

You previously asked for addition of hair to the pic in post#70 and I had a go with post#71 ...
I've had a go with your latest request and tried adding a fringe with her existing hair style but it did not seem to work ... so did a restyle as below ... ;)

I notice some padlocks on the wire rails ?

Thank you so much oldMohawk, brilliant, thank you.
all the padlocks are ‘love affection’ token locks from the youth of today. In my day you carved into a brick wall or tree.
 
Could I politely ask if one of our fantastic members could remove the creases and marks please.
many thanks, Pauline.x

Good morning all.
Could I ask one of our group of artists and magicians to make a couple of alterations to the attached picture, ( vanity on my part I admit ).
could the wrinkles around the eyes be smoothed out and my left eyebrow filled in.
many thanks for your unpaid but so appreciated work. Pauline.

New eyebrow (copy of the other one) and crows feet softened slightly. Hope that's OK.
