Thelma wanted to create something special for a relative in america and between us this is what we created. There were 7 old photos, in black and white and some in colour that all needed to be restored before we could make them into this wonderful collage. In Photoshop I increased the contrast and clarity of the main colour photo and created masks for the inserts. then in separate layers I added the restored black and white photos to the collage. This has now become a unique and treasured gift. PixelFIX - Photo restoration and photos repaired, from $15. The restoration and manipulation specialists. Click here for 'fancy view'

Just trying out a different technique for show clients the finished proof of their photo restoration. The first way is what I normally send clients. It is just a simple before and after Jpeg file, sat side by side for easy comparison. But I wondered if a GIF file that automatically changes between the two images would be better. I sometimes feel that the side by side view doesn't always show the full extent of what areas have been improved or repaired. The GIF file seems to show this better because the images are on top of each other not side by side. I'm using this Anzac Soldier to demonstrate. What do you think? Did you notice more area that had been improved in the GIF or on the side by side version? Traditional side by side Different way using GIF PixelFIX - Photo restoration and photos repaired, from $15.

James brought along this wonderful photo of his granddad who served in the first world war and fought at Gallipoli, which is remembered this year after 100 years. You can read more about the battle at Gallipoli here http://www.anzac.govt.nz/gallipoliguide/  . Anzac Day is celebrated tomorrow here in New Zealand and this wonderful old photo serves as reminder of the proud and brave solders who served for their country. Jame originally just wanted the photo restored but once it was restored I suggested that it be made into colour and this has really brought this old photo to life again. Thanks Richard.  The picture is very nice. - James PixelFIX - Photo restoration and photos repaired, from $15. The restoration and manipulation specialists. Click here for 'fancy view'

This was a request to remove some offending items from a much loved photo so that it could be displayed. The beer bottles were removed and the photo cleaned up. it is often the case with family snaps that the best photos need a little shop photoshop help to clean up the background or remove object or even people in some cases.

This photo has some bad pen marks spoiling the look of this family favorite. So I removed the pen marks using the heal and clone tools in Adobe Photoshop. Then I restored the contrast and vibrancy of the colours. The photo now looks restored and ready to be enjoyed again for many years to come.  PixelFIX - Photo restoration and photos repaired, from $15. The restoration and manipulation specialists.
