Title: Another First Restore from a Newbie
Post by: haleygd on November 20, 2008, 05:15:17 PM
Okay, I have what I think is a finished restore and ready for a review...
This is the original and restore

(thanks for pointing out the embedding tutorial.)

BTW: May want to look at the new Photoshop.com

I just got my CS4 Design Premium Suite and will be installing ASAP and then look out!  LOL

Gary,

You'll probably get more of a response from the volunteers if you post your images directly in the forum. It took awhile for my browser to get me there.

Here's a link to the tutorial about posting images in the forum if you need it: http://www.operationphotorescue.org/forum/index.php/topic,1837.0.html (http://www.operationphotorescue.org/forum/index.php/topic,1837.0.html)

Gary,

You did a super job on this one. The only criticism that I would have (and it's pretty minor) is to tone down  or blend in the siding on the house wall. In it's current state, it looks a little artificial (which most siding is).

Yeah I haven't liked the way the siding looks either. I have tried a few variations but this has been the best so far.  I wish I was working on my computer, it has been having problems. Sent in back to HP under warranty. Got it back yesterday and the DVD player is still not working right.  Of course they wiped and re-imaged the hard drive and I have to re-installed everything again. But they may have to wait under I can send it back AGAIN!  >:( :mad: :knuppel:

Well there's you're problem ... you're working on a PC! Just kidding.

Good luck with it.

Gary, maybe add some noise to the siding?

Looks like you came up with a great solution Gary. Well done.

1 down, a million to go. (just so you don't get all lazy on us or anything).
