Old photo help?

[02andahalfgt]

I have an old b/w family photo and I need to know if there's any way to 'touch it up' with photoshop? I've been trying, but my photoshop skills are absolutely horrible. :hang:

I'm trying to soften the creases in this pic and maybe get rid of the staples? I can't pull them out with out ripping the picture (the paper is so old and frail).

Does this help? This should be a 4x6 image at 300dpi. Suitable for print. :)

Looks good Dan, thanks. See what else you can do Kyle.

Edit: Here's my attempt, turned out better than I thought it would. If anyone sees areas it can be made better let me know.

Thats pretty good, I doubt I could do any better than that. Its a little less fuzzy than Dans. Only thing left is clean up the edges and make them straight.

Ill still mess with it later tonight and see if I cant do any better.

Nice work both of you.

Thanks. Only thing I can't figure out is how to fix the edges? :iconfused

Easiest way would just be to crop the picture.
