Post by: Inkabay on Tuesday 29 September 09 04:04 BST (UK)

Hi,

This is the only photo I have of my parents wedding and I would love to have it restored..but, is it possible the picture is badly damaged.

Kind regards

Hi Ink

Is there any chance you can rescan the photo at 300ppi.  This pic was only scanned at 72ppi and doesn't give us much to work with.    If you have any problems, please refer to the scanning tutorial at the top of the board which might help you.

I've had a quick go.

Regards
Caroline
