    why not just download some software and have a go yourself? The gimp or gimpshop are free.
    It's my problem, it's my problem
    If I feel the need to hide
    And it's my problem if I have no friends
    And feel I want to die


  • I'll have a go. you have PM.

    regards,

  • I've downloaded various free software to do this, but unless im being really dim, I cant seem to find the application on them to edit photos in this way.

    Thanks Stark, you been really helpful.
  • edit: just out of curiosity what sort of think are you trying to do. eg remove redeye, remove unwanted detail (a pylon etc)

    If you are likely to want to do more photos in the future it is probably worth downloading one of the free programs to do simple touch ups (I think GIMP is a bit much for most people!) You may find you enjoy it and certainly should not be intimidated by the prospect. Picasa and paint.NET are two examples.

  • Hi Joe, I wanted to remove some milk off his bottom lip and get rid of a date stamp. I really enjoy doing this sort of stuff myself and have done in the past on PCs at work but have never been able to find software at home to do it myself!

    I 'll have a look at both software you suggested and give it ago in the future.

    Thanks!!
  • I've just put paint.net in my 'favourites'!
