Hi Xinia :D
Thank you for posting the larger version, I am off to work now, but will check out those ears tonight and try a little colour, it is a lovely pic. I hope I can do it justice.

Thought I'd bring this one back to the top for others :)
Thinks it's well deserving of a colouration. (and yes it is THE one!)

Xin,
I've actually been working on it, on and off for a while, then didn't like something, so started from scratch. Then I thought I'd do the 'game' with it, and at least get it back up here for others. It's a good photo to colour, and I'm sure you'll get more restores given time.

PS. Mind is already ticking over with the next 'game' :D
and you just gave me a good idea (maybe?) without even knowing it!! Thanks :)

Victorian Dreamer,
What a lovely job you have made of the photograph, how do you change the background like that, what photo editing programme are you using? I have put a message on the board asking for advice on photo editing because my computer crashed recently and I bought a new tower and the photo editing programme is useless, the cloning tool is awful and I use that quite a lot on old photos. I want to buy a new one (or better still download a free one) but don't know which one.

jukebox,
I use GIMP. It is a free one, just do a search online :)
I'm still a newbie with it, but the best advice I can give is have a play with everything, and check out some of the earlier posts on here, loads of tutorials online, and you'll pick up bits and pieces along the way :)
