[QUOTE="Carroll, post: 482846, member: 9246"] When scanning a print for editing, I have had the best luck at scanning at a minimum of 600 ppi, and a minimum of 300 resolution, and converting to a .tiff file. Most scanners can do this easily. I used PS CC for this edit. With the Saturation filter, I used the Red filter within this filter, to reduce the Red cast, and a little of the others. I used Nik tools Glamour Glow in Color Efex Pro 4, to soften the harshness of the jpeg pixels. And did some other stuff, too. This is a small file, and will not print much bigger than 5x7, which is what I cropped it to. Because of the resolution (230), file size (143kb), it is difficult to do much with it. The larger you make this image, the worse it will look, due to those limitations. And, in my limited experience, the more you do to a jpeg, the more you risk making it look bad.
