Could some kind person please restore this b x w photo of pre-War Coventry in a parlous state I'm afraid to something clearer. It means a lot as it has my mother (seated) perhaps two months prior to my birth and both sets of grandparents and great aunt and uncle. Thank you. I may not have uploaded this correctly as I merely used copy and paste. Hope this works.

At the moment I do not see a picture
Read the help files for "ideas"
Or:
Assuming you know where the picture is and it has a totally unique name and a file size under 500Kb, when you click on reply there will be an add attachments box
Click on that and find your attachment
as long as it is in a format the site recognises and follows the name and size rule "POST" and fingers crossed it will work

Hi Graham,
Here is a link to a topic that helps you attach an image to your posts on RootsChat
http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=459330.0
Just scroll down to the picture that shows you the attach button....make sure that your title is original under 500kb and when attached don't preview ;)

Thanks Sarah, Sorry for my mistake. I hope this will upload now!
-
Yes, can see an image now but 90% is just a blank page
This is the important bit:
Anyway: Well done and I hope you get lots of good restores
-
If you use the pointers and scroll down and across the complete image appears. Thank you.
Sorry it is in such a bad state.

This was not a clear photo to work on, so I'm afraid this is the best I could do

Pat, thank you a thousand times, it is wonderful to see the photo as it once was. I am truly delighted and grateful.

Colour would be nice. Thanks for offering.,] From L - R Lady perhaps a light.midblue frock with white jabot item;
husband next to her wore almost always navy pin stripe, brother aged 5/6 white shirt? grey shorts,
Grandfather in white shirt, grey trousers, my mother in a voile or shan tongue? summer frock I think I can remember from wartime (still being worn after my birth) was I think pale green perhaps with tan motifs, behind paternal grandfather with white shirt, tie and perhaps brown suit,
paternal grandmother, probably in grey (you don't have to stick to this!) and maternal grandma
patterned frock pinks perhaps. But of course I leave it to you and there are roses I think.
Thank you so much for your help and kindness

I don't know who your message about colour was intended for, but I have added some colour to my restoration
