China, please feel free to use the information.
If I get some free time, I'll post an example of the technique.

ymfoster, Yvonne.
Hope you don't mind - I played about with your version.

I'm a novice.  I love what all you guys can do with such a destroyed photo.

That's fine Dave,  ;D

It looks better with a special touch around the edges,

by the time I repaired it my eyes were a bit tired to finish the outer corners  ;D

At first I thought the edges should be restored, but the more I thought about it, the more I thought the edges looked just fine as they were.

The baby's daddy kept that picture in his wallet for the rest of his life. The picture got some real mileage on it...I think it's appropriate that even the restore should reflect the heart of the daddy as he kept the reminder of his boy so close to him wherever he went.

Everybody has made a super effort on this one.

China,
That's very nice that you brought it back to the original point.

Bryant,
I don't really know what to say now!
