Hi there, what kind of help do you need? Are you after some advice, or do you want someone to have a go at improving the pics for you? If you have photoshop then you have the tools to do the job, you just need a few pointers.

I'll make a run at it, I can probably make the second one great but may struggle with the first, if you could send me the pics I'll definitly rework them for you. Just send me a PM with a link to them or send it to my email address (in my profile)

Thankyou to everyone for offering to help with my photos ... your generosity is greatly appreciated ... thanks again.
I have one problem tho ... I have accidentily deleted my pm's without being able to read them all .. so if i have not responded to your message please forgive me
would it be easier if i posted one of these photo's in here so everyone who is interrested could have a go at restoring them ?

this is what the Rework gallery was initially designed for, I would say feel free to use it this way.

really? so should we all move our reworks, into the proper galleries, and put pics needing help into the rework, or is it too late for that?

rework gallery was intended for reworks AND photos requesting reworks

..why not make a restoration contest?. mods upload a couple images for repair, and we see what we can do?

i think a contest would be a bit much for that idea because it is such a closed topic. unlike the manipulation contest, which creativity was the biggest factor, this would pretty much come down to who knows PS the best, although doing it a little more informally wouldnt be a bad idea methinks

maybe even give out some prizes ;->
