How do I attach an old photo which is badly in need of restoration?

Rosemary, on the front page of the photos board the last 2 "sticky" posts give detailed instructions on how to post an image. They're quite detailed, so you might be able to skip over a lot of it and just read the bits that you aren't familiar with. If you have any specific questions that aren't covered in the those posts, just ask here.

A unique name and the size limit are the things to watch I would suggest

Thank you for your reply. I think I have uploaded the photo. It is in the hands of the moderator now.

If it is this one then it has worked (and got some excellent restores). Think it needed cropping to just the photo!

I can’t believe the difference this has made! I will be eternally grateful.
