:Stale means that it hasn't been done in a while and is normally a prompt for the originator to do something eg. provide better source or a .pdf version. Of course, it can apply to really tough jobs that nobody has the energy to tackle.
:Only other advice I can give is: have fun, be polite and Don't Feed the Trolls. If you've got any other questions, ask away. [[User:Dhatfield|Dhatfield]] ([[User talk:Dhatfield|talk]]) 16:59, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
 
==Q. about specific crappy image==
[http://www.well.com/Temp/crappy_image.png This]] is the best quality copy of a particular image that is available. It is from a microfilm photo, with too much contrast, that was scanned in at 4-bit color depth, so it does have greyscales. Mucking about with it in GraphicConverter, [[:Image:William A. Spinks passport photo 1924 no sig.png|this]] is the best I've been able to do with it (including mirroring horizontally so that lit side of face is toward text, as seen at [[:William A. Spinks]]). Is it plausible to improve this image further, or is this a lost cause and not worth adding a request for? — <b><span style="font-family:Tahoma;">[[User:SMcCandlish|SMcCandlish]]</span></b> &#91;[[User talk:SMcCandlish|talk]]&#93; &#91;[[Special:Contributions/SMcCandlish|cont]]&#93; <b>‹(-¿-)›</b> 16:31, 30 August 2008 (UTC)
