Re: Johns avatar

Hope your not suggesting John is a Hat, Ian ? Funny though I tried adding colour to a photo on My Heritage Web Site. and it turned our berets black. Good Photo though John !

Re: Johns avatar

Billy, usually photos from then are tinged orange. This is caused by the chemicals degrading. It is an easy to fix in Photoshop, you just remove the colour caste. Very rarely, you get one that is near impossible to repair, i've done hundereds and only had one defeat. If you have any you want done, email them to me; membership @bafc DOT org DOT uk.

Re: Johns avatar

Photoshop is a great piece of kit but quite pricy, I had an old version 5.5 , but it doesn't want to know windows 11 mate !

Re: Johns avatar

Same here Bob, running CS2 (for free), on Win10, but i'll have to go Win11 at some point.

Re: Johns avatar

Don it's a shame really because it is a brilliant piece of kit, some try to ape it but they don't come up to the same standard, but enjoy it while you can !

Re: Johns avatar

I used to be quite good with it, but i lost it 6yrs ago when my computer died, so didn't have it anymore. I tried a program called GIMP, which does all the things PS does, just very differently. I just could not get on with it.

When this computer died a couple of months ago i found CS2 on my USB stick. I forgot i had it. I am struggling to re-learn it, as all my tutorials were on my wireless drive which this recovered version of Windows doesn't want to know.

Re: Johns avatar

Don, have you tried googling it under photoshop manuals, just a guess but you might be able to download it mate.
