I haven’t forgotten that last week I promised you a couple of photo restoration tutorials. Well, the one I had planned for today turned out to be pretty complex. In order to cover everything really thoroughly I’ll be using this one photograph for a few tutorials including some instruction on using GIMP.

I’m going to an art show tonight so if it’s ready before I’ll publish Part One and if not, expect it tomorrow. Here’s what you’ve got to look forward to:

• Restoring a Torn Photo in GIMP
• Improving Damage, Water Stains and Discolouration
• Detailed Study of the Scissor Tool
• …plus some bonus material that I haven’t finalised yet.

Since this will be quite advanced, I look forward to your input; particularly if you have alternative methods or an opinion on the final piece.
