I have 80 jpg images from the 'old' country of our ancestors. These are sent to us on two diskette. Unknown to us, these images are compressed. Is there anyway I can un-compress them as they look real bad. If not, how I can enhance them to make them better. I have photoshop but not knowing how to use it. Thanks.

Unfortunately, the image quality has already been lost in order to compress the files. :( You can change the photos to an uncompressed format, but they will not look any better. Photoshop is a very powerful tool, but the results it can obtain are nowhere near what the original images looked like. You can try some of the filters to see if they do any good... :(

Your best hope is to try and get uncompressed images sent to you...


Hope this helps... (although I don't think it will)
