Best to get this images right would be with to the original raw files. Work on the jpgs will get nothing out of the many raw processors magic. Grunpfnul (talk) 23:41, 30 December 2025 (UTC)
Any way to provide raw files? Commons doesn't allow to upload raw files Wasiul Bahar (talk) 15:50, 1 January 2026 (UTC)

Resolved

Article(s):Karl Hess

This pic has been used for years for this article. It would be improved, I feel, if the hand and wrist at the right side of the pic (left of Mr. Hess's hand) were removed from the photo.Joel Russ (talk) 22:54, 30 April 2026 (UTC)
I found the photo and retouched it. --NearEMPTiness (talk) 10:55, 1 May 2026 (UTC)

Portrait of Joannes van Buyten


Article(s): For use on the wikidata item, as it is atm

Request
The painting had been in storage rolled up for a long time before being backed and put back up. The cropped image clearly shows the fold lines and has other bits of damage. Could these be cleared up? I would prefer that it was saved as a jpg. Thank you ---- Deadstar (msg) 14:00, 16 May 2026 (UTC)
Graphist opinion(s)
gave it a try - does this satisfy you? Grunpfnul (talk) 14:34, 16 May 2026 (UTC)
@Grunpfnul: that was quick - thanks! Looks great, but is it a bit grainy around the eyes? I can't put my finger on it exactly. -- Deadstar (msg) 16:06, 16 May 2026 (UTC)
@Deadstar: The grainy-ness you see may just be a result of how thumbnails are generated. jpg files automatically sharpen when scaled down for thumbnails, whereas tiff file do not. For example, see the two identical images below, just saved with different filetypes:

I see! Thanks Pbrks. The image is a lot better than before, so call it ✓ Done.
