Deb, here is another good place to start. Michelle has a thread helping with Elements starting from the beginning. Could really help you out. If you are using CS it can still be helpful.

Suzi and Shari, looking good. I finally a little time so I am going to give it a shot too.

Deb,

So sorry for your loss. I took a stab at it - copied the layer, did a free transform and reduced the width by 9% and did a little cloning on the neck creases. Cropped and sized for what should produce a fair 8x10

Here is my attempt. I used an airbrush action and took out the lines around the eyes and the softened the complexions. I used the healing brush on the lines on the neck (art brush wasn't getting it). Toothfairy action on the teeth and used the red eye tool on the eyes. I cropped it and even though you said you wanted the background I added a vinette the color of his shirt to help give the illusion of being thinner.

These are absolutely beautiful shots guys. Im speachless. I think I like the one with the blue border all around best. The skin tones are even and we have our pepsodent smiles on and nobody can see my ugly fingers which usually have long fingernails and didnt this past Christmas. I usually have a bit lighter highlighted hair and can somebody do a nose trim on Jim. I am concerned what that might look like in a bigger picture :love:
