You've been going through my contributions looking for ammo. You didn't find enough so you are looking for a fight. All you've had to say here is, people talk too much for you and, you don't care who is right or wrong so long as you can put any disagreement with your friend down as an insult. I answered the question. You chimed in to complain that someone answered the questionTag: UndoNext edit → | ||

- Hello!, my question is: how do I remove the little points when you look closer, zoomed. Or it's just impossible because it's of 1912? Very very very kind regards. -- LLcentury (talk) 14:31, 4 June 2019 (UTC)

@LLcentury: you use the pencil tool at a very low opacity setting and the smudge tool, also on a low opacity. You zoom in until you can see the square pixels themselves. Colour them in slowly. Zoom back out to check if your alteration is noticeable. Smudge any noticeable edges or revert and try again. Repeat. 
If you open the original file in Windows photo viewer and a saved version of the altered version, Windows will update the altered version when you save it, so you can flick back and forth to compare the alterations without zooming out or opening and closing the file all the time, handy. Marks such as the scratch on the mans ear can be easily fixed. However, removing the scratches and grains from the womans face and still leave it looking like a photograph could be difficult, so start by simply removing large obvious scratches and dirt marks. Try desaturating the picture if you notice any colour differences in the gray scale. Larger stuff is probably easier with the cloning tools ~ R.T.G 13:28, 8 June 2019 (UTC)
- Using the clone and heal tools in GIMP or Photoshop correctly is far more effective. There are plenty of tutorials online for this. (Hohum ) 14:00, 8 June 2019 (UTC)
- I'd assume the clone tool is cumbersome for pixel sized work. ~ R.T.G 18:13, 8 June 2019 (UTC)
- No. Less cumbersome and more effective than pixel editing. This isn't the venue for a a full discussion. (Hohum ) 18:16, 8 June 2019 (UTC)
- I think the reference was to mostly pixel width scratches and blemishes. ~ R.T.G 00:36, 9 June 2019 (UTC)
- Whatever "the reference" was to, Hohum was correct in both the things they said (1)
"Using the clone and heal tools in GIMP or Photoshop correctly is far more effective."
,"Less cumbersome and more effective than pixel editing."
and (2)"This isn't the venue for a full discussion."
. Sometimes it can be best just to listen to what you are told, especially by someone more experienced. -- Begoon 02:47, 9 June 2019 (UTC)
