easy enough for the right person - Daniel Baldock

I'm sorry your feelings where hurt Carolyn, but I think in fairness, Mark thought he was talking to me and I'm sure intended no offence.

Just a simple case of mistaken identity.

You hit the nail on the head...... yes it was being told you must be bored ha ha, like you know a lot of eyestrain and effort and time goes into doing restorations, plus we do it out of the goodness of our own hearts.

Photograph restoration takes many hours, often being made difficult because some of the photographs posted are is such a sorry state. All the photograph restorers try their best to make any improvements they can because they know often that these photographs mean so much to the poster.

We very much try to keep RootsChat friendly and polite, maybe a little more consideration should be given when posting.

Hi Mark

Just want to point out that we are in fact two different people!  I am CAROLINE (Cazza59) with the Manchester  United photo. I live in Queensland, Australia that "spoke" to you originally and requested the better scans, which you then said you would be able to get.

CAROLYN (Saddles) is the person that later posted and removed her work.  Carolyn lives in Western Australia, which accounts for why we often post around the same.

We have been confused in the past, so all in all, an honest mistake to make on your part, particularly being new to the board.   I guess from now on to avoid further confusion, I will sign off as Caz.

Anyway, I look forward as per my original posting and your response in saying that you would be posting better scans as soon as you have seen your Dad. 

Cheers
Caroline AKA Caz   

PS  My daughter uses "ha ha"  all the time to let me know she's having a joke! 

Very confused by it all, I write haha instead of lol coz it's very over used by all these "kewl kidz" who must take every possible great thing in this world and use it and use it until it's lost all meaning. So is there a way to block on this site? I don't have time for arguments and I shouldn't have to explain myself to anyone, should be as simple as if I like something, I like it. If I don't, then I don't. simple. Right?

Mark,

People put a lot of time and effort in to restoring a treasured picture for someone.  In can take many hours in some cases to repair or enhance a picture.  The end result is usually dependent on the quality of the scan and the damage to the picture.  Sometimes when I post a restored picture I am happy with the result and at other times, not so happy.  It Is great to hear from the poster when they are pleased with the picture as it makes it all worthwhile.  You post says if "If you don't like it, then you don't.  Simple.  Right."

May I suggest that if you don't like it, then it is better to keep it to yourself, rather than hurt someones feelings who has gone to a lot of time and effort for you.

Having also had a go at your picture, the comment which you made (in bold above) has certainly put me off posting it.

Steve,

I never said I didn't like that restoration work. I simply thought that Carolyn was the same person as Caz, which I was mistaken. hence why I wrote "you must be bored haha" misunderstanding on both parts.

The statement you have made bold wouldn't be directed at anyone specifically.
I do however think that reworking the face to a different person (or drawing it on) is not work that I can relate to.... That person is not the same person anymore.

Mark I now know what you are saying and that is you thought I was Caroline.

Well how would I suppose to know that ?   

So all was needed for you to say you mistook me Carolyn for Caroline and if you had pointed that fact out I would have had another view on the whole thing.

Anyway mistakes are made, so lets let it be !. 

So I will take this opportunity to wish you and yours a Merry Xmas and a Happy New Year !

Merry Christmas to you also
