Hi Niksmum,

Thanks for your help with this photo as it looks like a new photo now.  Could the size be increased?

Thanks for all your help

Hi Niksmum,

Thanks for all your kind help.  Would it work better for making the image bigger if I first print the first one and then rescan it or would that make no difference

Thanks for all your help
