Wigan Album

Brilliant.

A clever pic, well laid out...the people look as if they really a standing around. I like it.

That's brilliant Tony.

Brilliant! My daughter did one of Peter and I in our 1940s clothes, which we wear to re-enactments, looking as if we are standing in 40's Wigan. I will put it on.

Brilliant! You could have a little business doing that for folks - except I expect it took a bit of time.

No luck! I've scanned my photo into My Pictures, but for some reason it won't let me upload it onto The Album, although I have done it before. No idea why.

Very clever, I hope they all had a great time, well done Tony.

PS....Finally cracked it, (more luck than management!)

thanks for all your kind comments, it is time consuming but very relaxing as well, i think i'll take or orders roll up roll up lol

Very skillfully done Tony. It's fantastic.

Hey, Tony, great idea and well executed! Flattered that you used my pic as a backdrop - really enjoyed what you have done here. Thanks for sharing!

Blimey!, how many Layers did this take Tony?. Well worth it though, a cracking image and a great idea.

I love this picture....

That's a very well dressed doorman.lol
A great photo, well done.

fantastic tony,its a lovely idea,my cousin gerry did a couple of me with my aunty, from 50s,hope your keeping well tony.

hi tony
i see Austin and Rose on the right hand side
done really well there

Gosh, I love this idea... now you've got me brainstorming!

What a fantasic way of showing family photos. How long did it take?

josie how are you and alan keeping. a keeps gooin wit yed down.peter thanks for comments but dont forget tommy & sally. carol it does take a while but once you have cut out your subject it can be used on any backdrop its finding a gem like last orders by andrew fishburn ,its easier and helps if your subject is full length, half of my photo had no legs and arms missing, thats when it becomes a bit tricky.

hi tony me and alan are doing ok thanks, we have moved into a bungalow now been here 12 months we love it glad to hear your gooin wit yead down ha ha,

Is your dad on twice Tony?

tony ,id'e love to see it like that than what i see today, if you know what i mean.

he is bill one with mi mam and one in his overalls it funny really he work on the church in the late 50s doing a bit plumbering, on the roof repairing the lead flashing, in them days plumbering covered a wide range of jobs and he discovered dry rot in the eaves he also like a pint and i reckon he would have had a quick one in't pub with his snap, saying that bill you probably knew him better than i did.

josie one of the nurses that comes to me said her dad was on wigan world so i found it and she ask me if i could make it colour for her so i did, it was a wedding at st williams and you had posted it but i can't find it. i think it was the hilton family

tony,is she a hilton herself as i know a girl whos a nurse and she lives near us her mum married a hilton but the photos i put on are under wedding in the assorted contents hope you find it,the photos were my aunty and uncles wedding 1959 my uncle frank mawdsley married doreen hilton and he passed away a few months ago age 80.

josie sorry to here about your uncle frank.the nurses name is cherlyn nee hilton i found the wedding photos, i just put your name in the search bar at the top of the page, its the first time i've used it, it found it right away.

tony glad you found it but how can you make it in colour.

josie i use a program called photodeluxe home edition 3.0 its an old program i've had for years i did get the updated version photoshop 6.0 but thats to complicated for me.your welcome to borrow it if you want ,you know where we live.

tony, i have no idea what all that means ha ha ,i have loads of photos i would love to see in colour,like one of my mam and dads wedding photo and a few others that would be amazeing in colour,is it a machine that you put your photos in and they come out in colour ?

josie its a program you download onto your computer its just like colouring in a colouring book keeping within the lines but its very time comsuming you send me just one photo and i will colourize it for you i've left my email

tony i cant seem to get into your email address its not letting me do it so i will leave you my email address as i wanted to ask a couple of questions about photo it might be better if you email me then i can just reply,thanks tony.
