Any good photo editing programmes like Paint Shop Pro are capable of doing a restoration on old photo's using the clone tool and a scanner. I've also heard that the firm JESSOPS can do it but I understand it could be expensive. MIKE.

	Susanne, If you want me to have a bash at them you can email them t o me - I work in photograpy so know my way around photoshop programmes. Have to do it when I'm not busy at work so it may take a few days Zoe
