Dear All,
Being new to this forum, and for years going down the "if all else fails, read the instructions" road to getting anything done, I've finally come across the impossible (at least for me!). I'm currently trying to do up some old photos (and I mean old!) and some of the scanned faces are in such a state that the left or right halves of many have been completely obliterated either through age or bad developing. I have tried cloning bits from one side to add to the other, but almost invariably end up with some bloated half human looking countenance that would perhaps do better in a horror movie.
Can anyone suggest a reasonably easy way to put back the other half of a face to at least make it look something like the person it's supposed to represent? If necesssary, that would also include an app that may exist especially for this purpose. (I have photoshop, which I'm still trying to get to grips with, and a few others from Corel etc.)
many thanks
