Is there a way to erase the effects someone put on a photo without erasing the photo itself?

Example: Someone scribbled over someone's face with paint, anyway I can erase the markings they put on it  and see what is behind it?

Sorry wrong section, mod help pl0x?

Yes. You need a little known utility called "Wild Goose Image Editor". Can't recall the url for it off the top of my head, but you should be able to find it with google...

Is that the actual name of the program? I google'd it and nothing came up other than wild goose island.

It's pretty old and not very well known, try searching tucows or other similar sites.

no, there is no way to recall the old image using an image manipulation software if it was overwritten.

you can attempt to replace the scribbling pixels with pixels of the correct color, but that will only work for minor alterations

Sorry. Had you looking though!

'Fraid to say, (and I take it we are talking about a digital (computer file) image here) unless the file is saved as a 'layered image' (which jpeg, bmp, png and most others are NOT) you simply can not do what you want - the information of what is under the scribble is simply lost.

This thread reminds me of something I saw on tv....some guy like made an inward spiral over his face (i think it was child pr0n and he was in it) but someone managed to revolve the warped section back and get his face.

that was the fbi who unswirled his face, he has been dubbed "cock mongler" i think, by the internet hate machine.

that was a distortion, the pixels were moved, and could be moved back using the same program (but in the opposite direction) in this case, the pixels have been deleted, and there is no way to retrieve them.

That is cruel...lol!

For a minute there I was like "why haven't I heard of this software?".
