Eric Basir of Photo Grafix just submitted this fantastic Photoshop Tutorial through our RootsTube channel. If you're like Og, some of your most precious family photos are a little worse for wear. Eric shows us how to use the grid function in Photoshop to make cleaning up those damaged photos a little easier. He also writes a photo restoration column for several genealogical organizations, and if you can't find the answer to your question on his site, you can even ask the Retoucher. Thanks to Eric and Photo Grafix for sharing this great resource with us!
If any of you have a little genealogical light you'd like to share, send us your video.
