so glad you liked it .... You know where to find me should you need it...

I work with Photoshop CS, but didn't use any of its new features for this restoration, so, you shouldn't have any problems with PS7.
As for checking CMYK and LAB Channels as first step in a restoration, is a habit I got...Sometimes, you can find real 'goodies' hidden there...
300 dpi is the resolution I scan my pictures too .... I find I get all the details without having to work with huge files...
Hope your nephews prom was a big success!!!

I might have overdone it a bit .... but I actually increased the facial shadows for an increased 3D feeling....
Thanks for pointing it out...

I had to 'brainwash' myself to stop on a picture

.... not anymore .... After trying my best I just accept the different range of satisfaction I get from the results I get ....
