Lori G Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Hi D! Just spent the past couple of days checking out the new digs, and I'm liking it so far! My question is: I would like to make a gift photo locket for my dear friend whose father has passed away, and have it be a surprise for her wedding. The only photos I have access to, without spoiling my surprise, are her FaceBook uploads. I know those files are tiny, and not very good quality. Will I be able to make my gift locket from downloading a FB photo? Or am I wasting my time with this route? I hope I'm asking this in the right topic, since I'm guessing this is an output question. Some samples of the photos I've found are attached. Thanks for any advice you can provide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Well, lockets are so small, so you might be ok!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lori G Posted February 3, 2016 Author Share Posted February 3, 2016 You think so? Because that would be awesome! The locket I plan to give is one that will be attached to her bridal bouquet. The locket/charms I've found are usually either 3cm square, or a similar size round. Any advice on which one to use, or how to spiff it up for my project? The finished item will look something like this.https://www.etsy.com/listing/247412765/customized-photo-charm-for-bridal?ref=related-2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Well, I think the first one would be easier. The second one would require more background editing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lori G Posted February 3, 2016 Author Share Posted February 3, 2016 I'm worried about losing his head in the background on that first one. I'm thinking a Levels layer or two may take care of that. Yes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Yes, I think just brighten the background a tiny bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
