| | Hi Ken...
Thanks for the reply...i am enjoying the site already...not enough hours in the day!!!
My Photoshop was a gift from my son...hes really kind to me......but i know a few people who have used it for a while and really like it....I dont know how to advise really as i still love my paint shop pro 9 and i find it quicker than photoshop...it really depends how much time i have as to which i use and i think i am a bit messy as i jump from program to program as each one i have has that special something....i am hooked on paint programs and try many out..i have a few free ones...my fave is project dogwaffle, i can make fab flower brushes in there...having said all that i like the color and quality of my printouts from photoshop.... the actions, filters and lots more...Oh i bet i have confused you even more...i would like to be an expert in something...are you doing this for a job?If not do what you enjoy most and a bit less of the other...dont know about you but i go with the feeling for the photo and just flow into it.Being new i dont know which direction to send you...but i will get back to you if i find out.....
Kind regards Patricia Kay |

| | | Re: A Welcome Note To New Members (and anyone else who wants a warm welcome) Thank you for having such a beautiful site. I registered yesterday after spending the morning reading and learning. I zoned in on "Restoring an old photograph." The tutorial is wonderful! I worked with an old photo, learned my PSE5 doesn't have a color mixer and I haven't a clue how to put a mask on the photo. My buttons are certainly different than yours and reading the help pages left me really confused. However, the best is today! I can't even figure out why I am unable to fix my workspace to show the photo and levels windows side by side as I can't move my photo in the workspace! Then being frustrated with that I decided to use the levels anyway, only to find, using the adjustment layer, that when I set the color to red, green, or blue the photo isn't covered with the various colors like it was yesterday so I could move the sliders. So in short, learned a great deal yesterday, in fact more than I have reading and searching the web, but today I am close to tears. I have a great sense of humor though and decided to thank you for the warm welcome and ask you (since this is the first forum I have ever joined) where should I post this? |

| | | Re: A Welcome Note To New Members (and anyone else who wants a warm welcome) Well, I am glad I found the site, it looks interesting, showed it to my son last night so he will probably be signing up also. He has a project right now that he was asking my help on, this is for a CD, he needs a fist holding a Microphone with Sweat on the fist. We plan on shooting it and then doing some retouching I'm sure he will post it later. Nice talking to you-all. |

I came across your website in Katrina Eismann's book. I am trying to restore old family photos that I brought from overseas and I am struggling with one of them. Thank you for having me.

The RetouchPRO site owner/admin, Doug Nelson, was one of the technical reviewers on the second edition of Ms. Eismann's unparalleled Photoshop Restoration and Retouching, so you've come to the right place.
Photo restoration can be challenging and frustrating at times, so be patient as you develop your skills. As you have already discovered the Image Help forum is a good place to start if you get stuck on an image. Quote: |

Peggy | Hello, Peggy... Not to worry. All of us at one point or another were new at this.
re: I am told [Photoshop] is a better program for photos.
Those who adept using PSP might not agree (it's an exceptionally feature rich program), but there's no doubt that Photoshop users outnumber PSP users by a wide margin.
In any event there's plenty to learn and fun to be had regardless which program you're using.

Welcome aboard to both of you.
