Anyone advise on photo/pics. We are using paInt shop pro at min but pretty basic package. Any free downloads we can use to touch up our pics.

Depending on what you mean by touch up.

To take away tattoos and other things so to hide your identity is good, but for me, I much prefer to see the pics as they are.

A world of my own

Have to agree, the more natural the photos the better, I only ever uses a little soft focus around the edges occasionally. You need to be seen as you really are, well thats my advice anyway.

Have to agree with what others have said - photo editing packages are great to hide tattoos / faces etc but personally I think that's where their use should start and finish.

All our pics are straight from the camera - some are good, some not so good but at least they show us as we really are

just what exactly are you trying to do anyway, the likes of psp should be good enough for most amatuer users

i use paint.net its free and easy to use and does anything that i need to do but i dont do anything fancy, loads quickly unlike some proggy's that take ages

I can't understand anyone wanting to touch up their pics, I'd never want to do this because you are who you are, and part of the swinging process is getting naked in front of strangers, warts an all. Besides, I think people should be proud of the body/face that they have, it's theirs and something they can influence (body anyway, lol)

Wearing clothing that flatters your natural assets is a different matter of course, as your clothing is presumably chosen to match your personality. And you will at least be wearing it when you meet someone. At first, anyway

Well looking at your pics, they look good to me, eyes blurred for confidentiality but otherwise they give a good sense of who you are. No probs that I can see apart from the one where the flash has overexposed the pic and no amount to PP can rescue that.

We agree with whats been said here,most of our pics where taken with a Fuji Finepix snapshot camera.

They're loaded straight into our laptop,the only thing we do is to lighten or darken them as required.

We see no point in altering pics beyond recognition,imagine the looks of disappointment when meeting someone on the strength of fake pics? Shudders!
