Post and tell - your restores/coloring
« on: Wednesday 16 April 08 10:43 BST (UK) »
A couple of the picture restorers will post a sample pic for you to restore/colour.

The submitted repairs/colours can then be discussed by the others with a view to us all learning new tricks and tips.

Please do let me know if you would like to give this a try. I see there is a need.

Thank you for your support.

Sounds good but maybe not on this part of the forum, it will soon get very cluttered on here.

It would be a good idea to have a "Child Board" coming off "Photograph Restoration & Dating. Conservation" this is one way of keeping things seperate and also make things easier for us all.

Maybe the "Child Board" could be called "Tutorials/Tips/Advice", it would be much better than having loads of 'Stickies' at the top of this section of the board with loads of links in it.

Good idea Mike. :)

Mike suggested this before and was sent off to the links section, so looks like a no go for a child board.  :(

I'm all for a 'child board' or a 'sticky'.
 I found the ongoing sticky re posting photos very useful.

It would be very handy to be able to post done or partly done restores, and get feedback.  And if it was all in the one thread we would learn by other's work as well. 

I think it is a good suggestion.

Hi Folks

I am happy to help whoever asks for it, a child board would be great.  But if it isn't possible then just post your restores and maybe put "Beginner", "Learner" or "Advice please" in the name of the post and we can all rally around and support the learner.   We need all the help we can get on this board, it is getting very popular.  I for one have very little time nowadays to do many restores and peoples memories are so impoprtant!

I am also more than happy to either guide or be guided when and wherever someone starts a thread.

Like Lones, I don't do much these days but we can all learn something new every day.

I'm in  ;D

By the way, I do have a photo in need of some very special TLC and am willing to post it for everyone to practice on.

Just say so and it will be done.....

Hi Guys,

I've split Lady Di's photo off to a new topic, so you can carrying
on discussing Michael's idea here, on this topic ....

and work on the photo there:
Post and tell - #1 from Lady Di
http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,299187.0.html

I suggest a new topic for each photo, maybe with title
"Post and tell - #n from ..... " but that's up to you.

If there are enough of them, a "catalogue" topic would help to find them, without sticky-ing every one.

Main thing - enjoy  :)
Bob
