    Smile Need help with photo!

    I bought my mum & dad a grandkids photo frame for christmas & was going to have the photo's in there ready to go. One of DS, one of both my girls & then one of my neice.
    Problem is that I copied the photo of my neice & my brother off SILs face book page. So now I can't edit it at all! I only want to change it to black & white, but windows gallery won't let me!
    Anyone know how I can do it?

    Just a thought, seeing as you copied the pic of FB, it might print up badly. A darling friend of mine copied some newborn pics of Ruby I put up and made a scrapbooked album for me. As standard 4x6 prints they looked awful (the colours had changed and they were very pixilated) so I gave her originals to replace them with

    You might be better off to get her to email you a higher resolution copy of the photo and use that instead!

    That was my thought too. The resolution of the photo is reduced when they are posted on FB so they won't print out nicely at all.

    Didn't think of that. I did print it in colour, & its not great. But I'm not sure she'll get online before christmas. Will try though.

    ETA - You guys are right, its not great quality, but it'll do for now
    Thanks heaps Sarah! Your a legend
