Second step (screencap)

...
Last step (screencap)
Side by side/before and after images.

We have lots of finished jobs, several of which have excellent descriptions, but I think this would clarify things a lot for many people.

Now I've been on this forum for?? a long time watching all these restores and I hope someone will help along the lines of Doug's Suggestion.

I have read all this and watched, its taught me a lot but not how to put it together?

When you start with an old image do you scan it first, would this be done in two runs each 90 degrees from the other? Then overlay rotate flatten? Is this the time to use Roland's FFT Tutorial, So now do I capture sharpen....

I have Eismann's book and it tells plenty except how to sequence all the things you all know how to do. So please now that I've been given some really hard work by a friend I'd like to see if all the steps you've taught me here can go together.

Thank you for the post . I am pleased you have posted this request. It has been my hope people would do a step by step. I think each photo has a life of it's own, but there are some universal things which can be done. People here are so talented and helpful. I too have learned from being here. I have used the masks tutorial from viki and information on coloring from flora and those two techniques alone have been priceless. I would like to learn how to use channels, I do not have a clue how to use them. I know someone asked me what I wanted to know about them. Well I did not know how to respond because I do not know a thing about them.

Thanks for you post. Neb

Can someone tell me how to make a new channel and paste it like another red/green channel. Kinda know how to make a new channel but not how to copy and paste into the background? Can you use filters on a singular channel or do I have to make a new channel and then apply the filter and then paste. This is my big confusion.

I want to see a tutorial on creating a selection of the teeth automatically. I don't want to do it every time and the tutorial on changeing the color of teeth was good, but they don't say how to do it automatically everytime.

I would like to see a tutorial on how to make a full glitz image. I've looked everyone I could think of on how to do this but all I get is people selling their services. Here is an example of what I'm talking about. http://www.mybellaphotos.com/pageant.php
