The software behind this website will be available in the future when a new website has been set up. Please check later.

This site uses restore6.py which is the latest and seems to be the best. Obviously it is possible to find individual examples where one of the earlier versions gives better results.

A technical description of how it works can be read here.

The programsthat will be available on the above link are written in Python which can be installed on almost any computer. If you wish to process a large number of photos then downloading the python program is the best way. It is fairly straightforward to install Python for Windows.

I can be contacted by email. To prevent automatic spamming of my address delete the x, y, z from gjxd@lionhyouse.pluzs.com to get the real address.

The current version of the website does not include checking that the uploaded file is a proper image. At the moment some error messages are produced so things like attempting to process a black-and-white picture or restore a picture that has deteriorated too badly should not fail with no explanation.

Currently only jpg images are supported. Downloading the restored image depends on the browser you are using; the filename may need to be changed and the extension .jpg added.
