Can you fix this ? Ha! sure I said as it was handed over to me, the real photograph,
To prove a point, I handed this "job" over to Elizabeth Oviok, an Eskiimo woman (postmaster). She has never worked in any type graphic program ever, not once.
she had no idea what photoshop meant. She was sitting beside me @ two 19" dual monitors w/ photoshop opened.

I scanned this image and opened it on her computer,
I am sitting in front of two 21" ViewSonic monitors and I have the same image opened here.
I only said, these words to Elizabeth: Pick the smallest spot, zoom in as far as practically possible, now use the eye dropper tool and take a "sample" of the good area, now "paint" that spot using your "brush" and then "smudge it with the smudge tool if necessary, then zoom out to check your work. WowoW! Her very first attempt!

When the customer returned and saw the new printed photograph and touched it, she said, it looks brand new ! She gladly paid the 75 dollars,(too cheap of a price) and I handed the money over to my fiance, Elizabeth!
NOTE: The reason for STARTING at the smallest spot, is so that you can "warm" up to this method, you cant just jump into a large area at the very beginning! LEARN.. .. and PRACTICE..! so what do you think? of her first ATTEMPT ??
