Greetings from Western Australia.

My name is John and I am a digital image restorer and custom framer.  After navigating this site for the past couple of days, I find myself humbled in the presence of so many willing people who devote a great deal of their time to such a worthy cause.

Keep up the great work and look forward to contributing as an active member of OPR.

Cheers for now,

JB   Thumbs up

Welcome John!

We're glad you've joined us! I'm sure you'll enjoy getting to know our group through the Forum. It's also a great place to post your work-in-progress and to get help with restoration challenges that come up (there are always challenges!).

Did you notice the Official Handbook link? It's a great place to get started before you start on your first restore. There are also a lot of tutorials available. Lately we've been discussing the usefulness of layer masks. Feel free to join the discussions!

Looking forward to hearing more from you,

Tori

JB thank you so much for you decision to add your skills as a digital image restorer to our group.  Welcome!   

There is always a wealth of friendly advice here on the forum when you find yourself with a difficult restore and I'm sure we'll all be able to learn from your own experience as a restorer well.  I think you'll have fun here and we look forward to seeing more from you on the forum.

I'll second that, Pat!

Hi JB judging by your website, you're an ideal candidate for OPR. Welcome to the Filth Machine!

Hello All,

Thank you for your kind words.  Tori I have seen handbook and the vast array of information available to all.  It's great to read through them and see how other restorers like to battle similar tasks.

I look forward to catching up with you all in the forums.

JB.

Hi John,

Welcome to OPR, we are happy to have you. We have a great bunch of Aussies already, so you will fit right in. Are you safe from all the flooding?

Hope to see more of you in the forum.

Hi Margi and Tess,

Great to meet you. Luckily here in Perth we are experiencing beautiful weather, however, the same cannot be said for our eastern states friends, who are suffering extensive flooding in areas from Queensland to Victoria.  Every day you here stories of support from all areas of Australia for people in these areas which is fantastic.

Thanks for the website comments. I am in the process of updating this site with more recent work so stay tuned.
