The necklace is going to cause issues with my family. She didn't even think about it when the picture was taken. Also, it just doesn't go with the rest of the picture. If nothing else, the necklace has to go.

Of course it was raining, so her hair isn't styled. I have no idea what can be done for that.

It's really not a *terrible* picture and I think it's worth salvaging rather than spending money we don't have to have photos retaken.

Help! 8-)

Hopefully none of your family members are FReepers. It would be hard to explain the BatMan sign into the sky for help!

Post the picture. It might be easy. It might be impossible. People need to see the picture to decide.

Also, Photoshop costs around $400.

Retouching would be cheaper, and considering the steepness of the Photoshop learning curve (don’t have it, just hearsay), less painful.

Wal-mart’s photo studio takes very nice school pictures, with a much more reasonable price for prints, and better selection, than any photographer coming into the school. Sears often has a great price on packages, too, especially if you check the newspaper coupons or the ad supplements that come in the mail. I don’t see why anyone would pay school-photographer prices for a picture that’s probably ghastly anyway.

What kind of necklace is it, anyway?

Use the free version? Should be good enough. Not that hard to learn.

Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition

FReepmail me a link.
I’ll look at it tonite.

I can do some magic... sometimes... if the wine is working properly. :)

In case you feel ambitious, you can try “The Gimp”. It’s free and does everything Photoshop does.

I agree with Tax-chick. Walmart has some good Easter deals going right now, as well. You could get one really nice photo (you get to see them as they are taken), and then choose the number/type of prints you want.

Getting rid of the necklace is the easy part...

The evil is harder to remove.
