Article(s): Pedro II of Brazil
Request: Hi, everyone, good night! I was wondering if any of you could help me out with this one. There is a picture of Emperor Pedro II of Brazil that've I tried to color it (See [2]). However, my skills are close to... none and I was unable to make his beard and hair blond. And I also believe his skin color is not close to how it truly was (See [3] or [4] or [5]). I'd like to warn you all that it is in fact a photomontage of a photograph of Pedro II (his head) and a painting of his (the body and background), both done in 1851. If you could also make that photomontage look better, that is, more real, it would be great. I am going to nominate the article for featured status so wanted everything to look perfect. Thank you all very much! Lecen ( talk) 00:50, 8 August 2010 (UTC)

Article(s): Road surface marking, Timeline of United States inventions (1890–1991), Michigan Highway System, M-15 (Michigan highway), sandboxed article on County Road 492.
Request: Ok, let's start over here. I requested, and received, a scanned copy of the photo above. I've also rescanned the photo from the book, Making Michigan Move, which is where I discovered this photo. MDOT's scan from their archives was done at 72dpi, which resulted in 795 × 465 pixels, 175 KB. The scan I just did from the book came out at 3,294 × 1,916 pixels, 16.1 MB. The problem though is that the book was printed in in a weird sepia for the photos and blue for the text. As well, the scanned version from the book has a noticeable moiré pattern. Is there anything that can be done to salvage this photo? The first version has been nominated at WP:FPC, but it's just too low of resolution and garnering opposition left and right. Imzadi 1979 → 14:40, 23 August 2010 (UTC)
Graphist opinion(s): Opinion: You won't really get anywhere with that scan from the book, I don't think. All you have there is a high resolution scan of a low resolution image so all you've done is perfectly captured the halftone screen used by the printer, resulting in "dots the size of golfballs" - hence the moire. Open it in an editor, and zoom in on, say, the power pole in the trees just right of centre until you can see the halftone dots. The dots are 20-25% of the width of the pole. Now do the same with your b/w image and you'll see that even though it isn't very good there is far more detail even in that, without the giant halftone dots. That's because they scanned an original photo. The only way to get more detail is to get a scan done from the photo at higher than 72 dpi - which I think you indicated you can't do. It doesn't matter how well you scan the book, the intermediate step of the printer applying his halftone screen has removed the detail. Begoon talk 01:40, 24 August 2010 (UTC)
I cleaned up the half-tone that was causing the moiré patterns (and desaturated). I uploaded that version without any additional adjustments in consideration of anyone else interested in improving that image. I also uploaded another version with some quick additional contrast adjustments. Compared to the other scan this image is indeed higher-resolution, but unfortunately absolutely lacks in shadow detail.
For other editors: feel free improve upon the first image. Additional noise reduction and level adjustments will probably be useful. You can overwrite my second image. —

Request: Hi, everyone, good night! I was wondering if any of you could help me out with this one. There is a picture of Emperor Pedro II of Brazil that've I tried to color it (See [2]). However, my skills are close to... none and I was unable to make his beard and hair blond. And I also believe his skin color is not close to how it truly was (See [3] or [4] or [5]). I'd like to warn you all that it is in fact a photomontage of a photograph of Pedro II (his head) and a painting of his (the body and background), both done in 1851. If you could also make that photomontage look better, that is, more real, it would be great. I am going to nominate the article for featured status so wanted everything to look perfect.

Request: flatten crease up middle... Chris (クリス • フィッチ) ( talk) 06:43, 20 August 2010 (UTC)
Graphist opinion(s): Because this had been here a while now, I had a go. There was a lot of damage around that crease, so it's far from perfect. Begoon talk 09:30, 26 August 2010 (UTC)

Request: Ok, let's start over here. I requested, and received, a scanned copy of the photo above. I've also rescanned the photo from the book, Making Michigan Move, which is where I discovered this photo. MDOT's scan from their archives was done at 72dpi, which resulted in 795 × 465 pixels, 175 KB. The scan I just did from the book came out at 3,294 × 1,916 pixels, 16.1 MB. The problem though is that the book was printed in in a weird sepia for the photos and blue for the text. As well, the scanned version from the book has a noticeable moiré pattern. Is there anything that can be done to salvage this photo? The first version has been nominated at WP:FPC, but it's just too low of resolution and garnering opposition left and right.

Graphist opinion(s): Opinion: You won't really get anywhere with that scan from the book, I don't think. All you have there is a high resolution scan of a low resolution image so all you've done is perfectly captured the halftone screen used by the printer, resulting in "dots the size of golfballs" - hence the moire. Open it in an editor, and zoom in on, say, the power pole in the trees just right of centre until you can see the halftone dots. The dots are 20-25% of the width of the pole. Now do the same with your b/w image and you'll see that even though it isn't very good there is far more detail even in that, without the giant halftone dots. That's because they scanned an original photo. The only way to get more detail is to get a scan done from the photo at higher than 72 dpi - which I think you indicated you can't do. It doesn't matter how well you scan the book, the intermediate step of the printer applying his halftone screen has removed the detail. Begoon talk 01:40, 24 August 2010 (UTC)
I cleaned up the half-tone that was causing the moiré patterns (and desaturated). I uploaded that version without any additional adjustments in consideration of anyone else interested in improving that image. I also uploaded another version with some quick additional contrast adjustments. Compared to the other scan this image is indeed higher-resolution, but unfortunately absolutely lacks in shadow detail.
For other editors: feel free improve upon the first image. Additional noise reduction and level adjustments will probably be useful. You can overwrite my second image. —

Request: Can one of you wizards bring out the details in this dark daguerreotype by Mathew Brady, while respecting the photographer's original? Many thanks, as always MarmadukePercy ( talk) 03:52, 25 August 2010 (UTC)
Graphist opinion(s): Done, unless you wanted the scratches removed too; I didn't want to interfere to much with the original work. EWikist Talk 22:32, 25 August 2010 (UTC)

Request: Could someone crop Jim Petersen, the guy at the right, from this? ~ EDDY ( talk/ contribs/ editor review)~ 22:59, 25 August 2010 (UTC)
Graphist opinion(s): Here's a crop - what you end up with is quite indistinct, though, and very low res. Begoon talk 04:34, 26 August 2010 (UTC)

Request: Can somebody fix the spelling of "length"? If you have time, could you also vectorize the image? Thanks so much for your help. Guoguo12 --Talk-- 16:17, 26 August 2010 (UTC)
Graphist opinion(s):
How about the existing vector above ? Begoon talk 16:35, 26 August 2010 (UTC)
