Article(s): w:The Ambassadors (Holbein)

Request

These details of objects in the painting w:The Ambassadors (Holbein) are JPEGs cropped from a 30K pixel scan of the full painting; much higher resolution versions could be made by combining parts of the the nine tiled versions of the painting.

These images are extremely large and I don't know how to manipulate them myself. If possible the crops should be in PNG rather than JPEG so there is no quality loss from the tiles.

The ones linked in the request are just the images used in the English Wikipedia page; there are many more to fix in Category:Details of The Ambassadors (Holbein). Thanks! DemonDays64 (talk) 06:48, 29 August 2021 (UTC)

Article(s): nl:Spetters

Request

There is some marked development or printing damage on the face of the second person on the left on the first image, and some similar print damage on the side of the face on the second. I fear I would be too liberal with the cloning brush there. Milliped (talk) 17:34, 7 December 2021 (UTC)

Request

Could someone please improve the colors and clarity of this photograph? The previous file version of this image, while being horribly low‐resolution and compressed, at least had much nicer colors; it is a decent representation of what I think the colors should look like. If you would like to edit the original TIFF file, you can use this link. —VulpesVulpes42 (talk) 14:39, 17 December 2021 (UTC)

Request

Could someone fix the coloring on this photo and remove the watermark on the bottom left? The photo has a filter on it that blows out the whites and has inaccurate colors (look at the Ethiopian flag from bottom to top). Thanks.--Ue3lman (talk) 07:49, 18 December 2021 (UTC)

Crop and Remove Background, please. Languageseeker (talk) 03:13, 19 December 2021 (UTC)

 Done @Languageseeker: What exactly do you mean. After all, these images, with the exception of the first one just taken, already had cropped extracted copies with transparent backgrounds. PawełMM (talk) 08:34, 19 December 2021 (UTC)

Defense image retouching

• 

  Portrait of Admiral William Owens as Vice Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff

• 

  Portrait of General Joseph Ralston as Vice Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff

• 

  Portrait of Lt. Gen. Calvin A.H. Waller as commander of I Corps

Article(s): en:Vice Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, en:List of United States Army three-star generals from 1990 to 1999, en:List of commanders of I Corps (United States)

Request

Need colour correction for these images. These images either have too much yellow or too much blue (can't tell) and do not match higher quality Defense Department portraits of the 1990s. In particular, the portrait of LTG Waller, from the Lewis Army Museum website, comes from a series of official Army portraits with disjointed colouring (see the bottom part). That portrait needs that colour disjoint removed as well, and should ideally be [this type of colouring]. SuperWIKI (talk) 05:02, 21 December 2021 (UTC)

Adjust color to fix a harsh red color cast on this image

• 

  This image has a strong red color cast

• 

  image enhanced [OK]

Article: en:Havasupai–Hualapai language

Request

Would it be possible to fix this image's color cast? It also seems a little dark, like it is underexposed or the contrast is too high. --HenryMP02 (talk) 00:29, 25 December 2021 (UTC)
