Im trying to find photographs to restore. I cant seem to find them.
Im hoping that I dont have to pay to down load the photos. I want to volunteer to help those who have lost their treasures, but I cant afford to pay to do so.
Any help will be appreciated, I have looked around but do have a hard time reading for any amount of time. I know, odd, I can restore for hours, words, Im at odd with...lol

Hi Kate,

I have sent you a PDF of screen prints that should help. Hang in there, it gets easier and will make sense after awhile---the bad news is that the site will go through updates and a new round of changes.  Undecided

Kat,

Here is a link under the FAQ section on how to make a selection from the galleries and how to sign in. It will show you how to get to the OPR side and not the paying professional side of PhotoShelter.

Kate, please don’t be discouraged.  Margie has some in her gallery now that are not too damaged.  Just pick one and when you get to where you need help post what you’ve done so far in the forum (it’s easiest for us to help if we can see what you’ve done so far) ask questions and we will all be more than happy to jump in with advice.

Righto,  Miss Hannie. I jez gettin' right on with ma work here. Yes, boss.





>i think she's gone...<

psssst Kate listen up. They (the OPR Officials) think that they've got it over us (restorers) - but they HAVEN'T!
They got a "grunge machine" - some rotten device that splats the photos we work on with custard and dog hairs and goodness knows what, to make things difficult for us.

It's Margie - she's to blame. I been wondering why she stayed so quiet so long - she writing some serious program that enhanced the grunge machine so much that it blew itself apart.

Kate - do it! pick a photo from Margies gallery  -  do it NOwwwwwww www w  ugh.. They've caught me...    carryyy on without me..   gurgle...  >cough<

Kate,

Never mind Kevin, we never use the grunge machine on newcomers and then only as a training tool.

Kev, I've got a little surprise for you. <sigh, where did I put that masking tape!>
