Hi everyone,
I would be very grateful if someone could restore this photo of my little girl for me.
If someone fancied giving it a bit of colour too, her little dress is a pale blue.
I would be much obliged, as I am putting together a photo album for her birthday.
Many thanks
Su

Isn't she just so bonny!

Edit
Don't mind me, realised I posted two versions, one I hadn't intended too, tried to take it off..took the wrong one off, so have ended up taking both off...can't repost as I'm as I'm at work..I'm having a shocker!!!!! ::) ::) ::) ::) ::) ::)
-
H Su,
I was just about to get some jobs done when I saw this little cracker.
I just had to have a go. Therefore it is your fault that the jobs have to wait and
I am blaming you. So There!!!.
Tomkin ;D ;D ;D ;D

Another try

Hi Su,
I had resized it but I am having a running battle with a new program and my computer. The lot is going through the window any time now,
Tomkin ;D ;D ;D ;D

Here's a late one from me :)
Jim

:D
Su Great Picture and great Work on the Mods :D

;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
I'd just like to thank all of you sooooooo much, you have all made such a wonderful job of restoring the photo of my daughter.
You will laugh when I tell you that the photo was taken 39 years ago this coming July !!! I'm sure any 'cuddles' will be very welcome, especially at the moment.
She was born with a mop of jet black hair and her eyes a gorgeous brown (just like her Mother's ;))
She is a beautiful girl in every sense of the word.
Tomkin, thank you for the colour version it is spot on. The dress is the exact colour...what a good long term memory I have considering I can't remember what I did this morning ;D
Thank you once again, I'm dying to see her face when she see's it, together with other baby photo's she has never seen.
Love to everyone
Su xxxxx

Su,
Why not put an up to date picture on here then we can put the two together . :)
Jim
-
Hi Su
I hope I'm not too late, she is an absolute darling, you must be so proud of her :D :D
I can change anything you don't like in the colours etc.
Lones

Hi Lones
Thank you so much, it is lovely.
I do have an up to date portrait picture of her, but it comes out massive on screen, any ideas on how to make it smaller? You know how useless I am with these photo's ?
Lots of Love
Su xxxxx

;D ;D ;D
Oooooohhh Su !!
What a lovely little Cuddly !! A real poppit !!
;D ;D ;D

Hi Folks

genie.fan...that is fantastic...I can't get over it...thank you so much. You are so clever.
Jim, you too...the painting is beautiful... I am so grateful to you all for taking the time and trouble.
Many thanks also to Lones, as she took the trouble to put the picture up when it was way past her bedtime..thanks Lones :-*
I am so impressed I shall sit and look at them again and again.
Love

One lighten / sharpen up from me. Not necessary better but slightly variation
Mudge

Now to put her in the spotlight , where I think she's going to be for a while yet ;) ;)

WOW Su!!!! Thanks for telling me about the fantastic work done on your daughters picture. She is stunning!! I Love Genie. fans two in one shot, absolutely gorgeous.
I'm sure your daughter will be thrilled! Aren't there some clever, wonderfully, talented, generous people on this site? You all deserve massive Pat on the backs!! :D
Debbie
-
Here's another.......you can tell , I haven't much to do , can't you. ?
-
Good heavens, I didn't realise you could do so much with one picture. I shall have to buy an extra large photo album as they are all so super, and very clever. You have really started something here Jim ;D I'm going to run out of ink printing them all up :D
Now where did I put that picture of our rabbit ? ;D
Thanks again everyone
Su xxxx
-
What stunning photographs, and a very beautiful subject! ;D
Round of applause for you all,
Jane
-
Here's another one for you Su...A beauty and A cutie...side by side ;D
T.T.
Resized it for better viewing but should have made it smaller :-\
-
Hi,
Here I've tried to drop her left shoulder slightly, accentuate colours & highlight eyes.
-
Interesting layout, TT!
C
-
Here's my contribution.
Caz
-
Couple more.
Caz
-
What fascinating ideas Cazza...I like the cobweb (come into my parlour said the spider to the fly ;D) and the rose, very lovely. Well she is my rose.
They are all so lovely in their own way. I never thought for one minute when I asked Lones to put the picture up for me that all this would happen.
I'll have to find a blank wall somewhere and cover it with them all, as they are all equally beautiful.
Thank you everyone for taking the time to do this. It's cheered me up after an extremely traumatic two and a half months.
Many thanks once again
Love
Su xxx

Caz they are absolutely stunning :o :o :o Really first Class 8) 8) 8) 8) 8)
T.T.

I'll squeeze in just one more !
Jim
-
My word Jim ! Have you got that one hanging on your wall ;D ;D ;D ;D My daughter would cry laughing if I told her you had turned her into a sex goddess ;D ;D ;D ;D
-
Su ,
I was pleased with the way that one came out :P
here's one for her birthday. Tomkin let me borrow the nice coloured one of the littlun'
Do you think that you and your daughter will still be talking , when she sees this lot ?
;D ;D Jim ;D ;D
-
Jim
That is simply gorgeous, thank you so much, I shall definitely give her that on her birthday.
I daren't tell her about it. I hope nobody who knows her sees it and tells her about it before I get the chance to show her the photo's ;D
Actually she has a super sense of humour, so will (I hope) think the same as me, that they are all brillient.
Thank you everyone for all the trouble you have taken over this.
I was wondering...er...if I put a photo of Mum up (whom my daughter adores), and one of me (if I can find one I like...a younger version naturally ;D) would it be possible to combine all three..so we have three generations? That would be super.
Love
Su xxx
-
Go for it Su ;D.....They are incredible on here and will rise to the challenge...it will give Jim another opportunity to salivate over yet more female beauties 8) 8) 8)
T.T.
-
Me ? salivate ? :P ::) ;)
Su ,
Put on as many generations as you like !
Jim
-
Jim...Put your tongue away :o :o...your keyboard will get wet ;D ;D ;D
T.T.
-
;D ;D ;D ;DLOL
I will dig around for one of me I like. Why do we never like photo's of ourselves?
I could also put one up of Mum and me as a babies, so we could have all three babies together, that would be novel.
This gets better and better ;D ;D ;D
love
Su xxx
-
Rightie ho! I will attempt to put up two photo's. The first one is my Mum as a little girl. Will it be possible to single her out. Then the next one is of me.
So would it be possible to put Mum, me then my daughter as a baby on the same picture?
What am I saying? Of course you can ;D
love
Su xxx
-
This is Mum with her Mother and Brother, in 1915.
-
This one is me...don't laugh.
-
And now for Mum and me, so all three of us would be about the same age when our photo's were taken.
love
Su xxx
-
Forgot to say many thanks to Lones for the beautiful one of Mum xx
Here's me about the same age...
-
he he he he he, just kiddig Su ;) ;) You were a little cutie too, still are I bet. I am sure you will get some great results with these. I can't wait to see them ;D ;D
Cheers
Lones
Wow girl, you are posting them so fast, I can't keep up. Excellent pictures, we can see the beauty runs in the family ;) ;)
-
Hello Su,
Here is my first attempt , I hope it isn't too weird .
Jim
-
How about three cameos Jim...I'd give it a go but my eyes are a wee bit tired and I'm sure I'd make a hash of it at the moment. I think I've got a nice 3 in one frame somewhere...have to dig it out tomorrow.
Caz
-
Hi Sue...Given you a bit of a clean ;D...I can see where your daughter gets her gorgeous eyes from 8)
T.T.
-
Tidied this one up a little too :D

T.T.

I hope this isn't too tacky for you ! :o
The full size one looks better :)
Jim

Hi Su...I had a go too...I'm sure you will get many variations of these three beautiful ladies :)...Nice job Jim....three times the fun eh :P :P :P
T.T.
-
Gosh they are super ... what clever folk you are.
Jim, the one with my daugher me and my gran in the back ground is lovely...she looks like a ghost (which is what she is now of course :D)
T.T. yours are super too...you are all so kind for doing this for me.

Su xxx

Okay, you forced me to do another one ! ;D
Jim

Jim
I happen to be a rellie of these lovely ladies and the pictures are just so gorgeous.
Very clever.
-
Jim,
It is absolutely (well my sister-in-law) has just said it...gorgeous. I don't know what to say...and it's not often I am speechless ;)
Thank you so much for using your precious time to do all these wonderful photo's for lickle ole me :D
We have all been through such a terrible time this last few months with so many awful things happening in our family, that these photo's mean so much to us, and have cheered me up no end.
You are all so lovely, kind and thoughful.
Lots of Love
Su xxx

Su ,
If I can put a smile on a person's face , then it's all worthwhile doing ! :)
Jim

Here's a late one
Jim
-
Hi Su ;D ;D
Here is a first effort by me, I will try some other things too and see what I come up with :-\
Cheers
Lones :D :D
-
One from me.... but now taken it off as I've posted the wrong one.... ??? ??? ???
Here's the right one :-\ :-\
-
Nice effort Lones...really nice effect :) :) :)
Genie
-
Nice ones , Lones and Genie , they look a bit more classy than my gaudy ones .
Jim
-
Don't beat yourself with a stick Jim. I like them.
Tomkin. ;D ;D ;D
-
Nice work genie and Lones...really lovely 8)
T.T.
-
Jim ??? ??? What are you on about....you have some really lovely frames....I love the green one with the silver inserts :o :o :o
Genie
-
Right!! I'm going to STAMP my authority on this topic. You have all forgotten the little
cutie. Try licking this ( or these )
In truth Ive just spent 2hours trying to follow a tutorial. The book has gone into the recycling bin and I muddled about doing it my way. ( old blue eyes) Unfortunately I
couldn't find the postage stamp edging ( as usual when I want something)
So Su, Please pretend that it's a sheet of stamps.
Hope it raises a smile,
Tomkin ;D ;D ;D ;D
-
P.S.
I was going to put a price on then I realised she was priceless.
Tomkin ;D ;D ;D ;D
-
Tomkin,
You beat me to it , with that last coment :)
Jim
-
Hi folks
Personally I think everyones work is great, all the different ideas and effects are excellent and they give Su so much choice for her album ;D ;D. I am glad you think my effort was worth while too, I don't usually do this kind of thing, but I can see why you all do, it's fun isn't it? Trust me to be late catching on ??? ??? I am trying to find some excelent backgrounds and frames now so I can do others,now and in the future 8)
Well done everyone, but then I knew you would do brilliant stuff, I told Su so early in this posting, and you did not let her down ;D ;D ;D
Cheers
Lones
-
Way down the list but here's a couple from me
Carol
Isn't she just the cutest? and that smile..... ;D
-
Here's my try at the ladies :)
Lones
-
I'm in tears here....I don't know what to say...well I do, no I don't, words aren't enough....
They are all without exception, simply lovely.
Lones...I wont be choosing Any to put in the Album, they are ALL going in...Every version is different and wonderful. Thank you for the baby one, it's gorgeous. I can't make Mum and bigger as the picture itself is off a picture (if you know what I mean...not the original), and anyway I love it that way, thank you my friend.
Tomkin,
I just love the stamps.. I shall certainly be using them..one or two people will be getting a surprise when they next receive a letter from me ;D What a lovely comment...you are right..she is priceless.
Carol, many thanks for your lovely picture too, it's so good of you to take the time.
Jim, Gaudy? What do you mean? They are simply super, I am thrilled to bits with each and every one.
All this from beginning with one slightly torn photo...what a lucky woman I am to have such a wonderful second family...my Rootschat friends
Lots of Love and hugs
Su xxxxxxxxx

Hi Su,
Forgot to post this one.
It's a stained glass window.
Tomkin :) :) :) :) :)
-
Well, what can I say Tomkin, it's just absolutely gorgeous. Can you make the real thing now ;D ;D ;D
Soooooo clever. I've nearly run out of ink printing them all off A4 size. Most are already in a lovely album (the one with the tissue paper to cover the pictures). I have printed them off on a pearlised thin card, and they look fantastic. Julie will be speechless (for once in her life) ;D
I have also enlarged some photo's of her from tot through school years to teenage years (when she was a real eye-catcher - I know I am her Mother I would think that). So it's a bit of a This is your Life book.
Thanks once again to everyone who has contributed such beautiful reproductions for me.
You have made me one very happy bunny :D
Just so you can see how much hair she had when she was born....
-
Hi Su,
Quick colour. If you print it then don't print it
larger than it is. due to the low resolution it won't print any larger
without " breaking up"
Tomkin ;D ;D ;D
-
Hi Su
I have adjusted the color and filtered her abit... thats all that was needed ;D
Pete
-
Aw Tomkin, that is really beautiful. I didn't put it up to be restored or anything, just so you all could see how much hair she had as a baby, but thank you very much for that...what do you mean, 'if' I print it up...course it will be ;D
Pete
Thank you very much, it is lovely.
I never expected all this attention to the photograph.
It really has been super of everyone concerned to take so much of their precious time doing all this for me.
Thank you once again. Another one for the album,
Good job it has got a lot of pages in it ;D
Love
Su xxx
