Old Damaged Photos Wanted!

[Gibel]

Can anything be done with negatives? I have some negatives of my family in the 50s that never became prints. I found them after my father died in 1993 and they are still in the box I call “dad’s box”. I think there’s one of me standing by a stone at Stonehenge.

Try scanning them shiny side down at 1200dpi and with white card on the top to keep it in place, then they can be inverted into a positive image. If you can't turn them into a positive, post the scanned neg on the Photo board and we can do it for you. Make sure that you dust the negs off with a soft brush first to remove dust particles. Scan in colour even if they are black and white images.

I’ve got three or four from my aunts first wedding. All black and white, a bit yellowed. I’ll try to post them later as my OH is currently occupying the computer playing a game.

Raising this again as the Photo Board is very quiet and we need the practise  and the weather is awful

I've just uploaded a couple, which are waiting for moderator approval.

Sadly the ones of my aunt's wedding are too big a filesize.

Hi Lisa...That's good....Here are the guidelines to help you to reduced the file size:
