Restoration/colourisation for my grandparents Bergeron (Québec, 1960s)
« on: Thursday 06 April 17 02:02 BST (UK) »
Hi, I would like to submit another request. I have this picture of my grandparents Paul-Emile Bergeron and Jacqueline Turmel who was taken in the early 1960s before their wedding. They were married in 1962. Jacqueline's parents her shown in my previous post.

I would also like to have this picture restored and maybe a nice colourisation. My grandparents both had green eyes and light brown hair. My grandmother used to tell me that she wore a red lipstick matching the rose on her dress. Her dress was white. My grandfather wore a black suit and tie and had a white shirt.

Since I am not able to resize my picture (even with the tutorial), I uploaded it online and would appreciate if someone could add it for me please? ???

Thank you so much,
Ancestrologie

Hello Ancestrologie,

The image size was originally 3602 x 2806 px x 1200dpi = 28.9m which was 57 times too large than the 500 kb limit :o :o :o I have resized your image by altering the 1200 dpi to 300 dpi

You didn't say where you were going wrong or what software etc you were using for your images but here is a link to some different tutorials on changing image dpi with different software hopefully this may help you
