Renski00 Posted June 30, 2016 Hi D, mum has asked if i can give it a go at trying to fix this up so she can print as a 5x7 for a frame. Where should i start? TIA Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Christina Keddie Posted June 30, 2016 While we're waiting for Damo to wake up -- do you have access to the original print? It would be best if you could ensure that it was scanned in properly. If all you have is a digital file -- what are its pixel dimensions? And it might also help to include a 100% crop of the file so we can see better what you're working with.

Just want to make sure we don't miss anything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Renski00 Posted July 2, 2016 does this help? or do you need one of the man too? I probably could get the orignal pic, with effort. So for now id like to try and play around with this one to just see what i can achieve. This file is 5x7inch and mum will print to that, so its already sized ok. Id like to just reduce noise, fix colour, sharpen if i can without it looking horrible. just some basics so we can ensure it will print well. TIA Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Damien Symonds Posted July 2, 2016 Yeah, no, that's useless. You HAVE to get the print. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
