Hi Cheshchic

Is there any possibility that you can rescan your pic at a higher resolution, preferably 600 dpi.  This pic is only scanned at 100 dpi and it will be very hard to get a good result.

You might find it useful having a gander at the scanning tutorial posted near the top of the photo restore board. It explains what is meant by dpi etc.

Cheers

Hi Cheschic

Sorry it's taken me so long to reply.  I'm not quite sure I follow what the problem is but have you tried setting the scanner to scan at a specific size ie the actual size of the photo 10 x 6 or whatever.  All I can think of at the moment without talking to you further.

E-mail me the full sized pic and I will get it right for posting for you.

I'll also copy you with what I did so that you know what/how next time.
