Photo adjustments please
« on: Wednesday 01 September 10 16:27 BST (UK) »
Sorry, these are photocopies (I do not have the originals).  Can anyone please adjust them for me .
1. Remove backgrounds so that the backgrounds appear white.
2. Make each head the same size.
3. Convert both to black and white.
4. Make each picture 15mm wide and 20 mm tall.

I know this is asking a lot but can anyone please help.
Thank you, Tony.

xinia,
I have only just picked up your comment.  Yes, you are quite correct, this is the photo of Tony's wife, and it was made into a stamp - and used, too!
