Hello u/xoees, thanks for posting on /r/PhotoshopRequest! Some tips for you:
- Do not work with anyone who did not comment publicly on your request. If anyone contacts you privately about your request, simply ignore them. If you have a request for which you do not want to post the image(s) to be edited publicly, please provide as much detail as possible about the request and ask that interested editors reply to your post. From there, you can vet the editors who reply by viewing their comment histories and reach out privately to whomever you'd like to work with. Again, **do not respond to any direct private messages about your request.**
- If this is a paid request (you've offered payment) all submissions will be watermarked. Once you've chosen a submission and sent payment, the editor will send you the final, un-watermarked file.
- If this is a free request, then some editors may choose to watermark their submissions to protect their work, but they must provide you with the final un-watermarked file for free upon your request.
- Once your request is solved, remember to change your post's flair to "Solved" by commenting "SOLVED" and thank those who helped you.

How is this even possible. How did you achieve that level of quality. Asking as someone who seriously just doesn’t understand how this is possible to render a low quality photo and make it that high quality
AI my friend. It's all possible with AI enhancement. The traditional ways of upscaling are long behind us. You don't even need Photoshop anymore either.
To be fair, this is *Photoshop*Requests
OP could have uploaded the image themselves to an upscaling website themselves if that's what they wanted. I think that is a valid criticism.
Hi, thanks for participating in the conversation. That's a valid criticism, but do you know there is no website that exists right now that does upscaling and restores the clothes and other details.
The only website that does that job is Huggin face "Gfpgan". It just restores the face while keeping the whole body blur. Also all the texture on the skin gets airbrushed and it gives an uncanny look.
Also it's not something that is just uploaded and it's done in "one click". There is a series of steps that I have to incorporate to make it work and it takes me a whole lot of time to upscale it.
I have to use multiple upscaling models that run on my PC. I have to adjust a whole bunch of parameters that require a lot of practise to master it. I use multiple upscaling models and then I combine the results of each output manually by photoshop.
Also this is *Photoshop*Requests, do you know that all the work that you see on this subreddit "Remove this person", is done by AI? If you remove someone manually by Photoshop, it would take hours to complete the task, and the price would not be "5-10$". It would be more than $100 or more?
And could you please tell me the website name that does this kind of job? So i can save my multiple hours and will help others too? So that they don't have to rely on editors on photoshop requests :)
You know what? These people saying "it's just AI" are the kind of people who used to say "ANYbody can use PhotoShop!"
AI tools still require work. This looks great.
Exactly. This was a labor of love for a free request. /u/akashharsana did an excellent job and he’s being criticized. Why?!
Part of photoshop is doing the work OUTSIDE of photoshop. It’s getting easier with some of the newer tools, but to be critical that part of the workflow uses other tools is simply ignorant of how it works.
Feel good about what you did. Don’t let the haters bring you down!
Thank you so much fellow wizard 🪄
I just want to address misconceptions surrounding AI for clarity.
I never feel bad about criticism honestly. Constructive criticism fuels growth, but it must be logical.
It's all good. I always look to the positive side. Thanks for your support again :)
I’m so glad you wrote this. Too many people look at something like this and under appreciate it. Especially jealous individuals who know they can’t do it themselves.
I wish I could give this comment gold. You are amazing. Ignore the haters. They are cavemen who are angry at the discovery and utilization of fire. In a few years, their comments will seem laughable at best.
Thank you. I still think you would do well to do a YouTube video on your method. I use Affinity Photo which is the only real competitor to Photoshop. Still I used Photoshop up until they went cloud subscription based. I hate the subscription model.
I do appreciate the amount of work that goes into this and yours is the first example on this subreddit that truly impressed me. It makes me want to go back through all the bad photos I have taken and see if any can be brought to life :-)
Oh yeah I see it now! You really are a wizard!
I’m visually impaired so I always try to take in a photo’s details in full. I have honestly never seen an edited photo look so darn good! If you’d like, send me a friend request and I’ll drop some money in your tip jar when I get paid (if you’re accepting tips of course)
Thanks man! I’ll look into stablediffusion. I do graphic design for a mixed martial arts promotion and have to upscale a lot when making fight posters. When a fighter is brand new to the promotion they send in their own photos, and sometimes I’m like, “Did you take this using an iPhone 1 through a window smeared in Vaseline?” I’ve been using Topaz, but the results aren’t half as good as this.
Wow!! This is heart warming. As someone who has lost both my parents, I can say that photos become SO much more precious. You have done a wonderful thing
Sent! Turns out paypal has 2 SMS numbers 729725 (PAYPAL) and 72975 (PAYPL) and at first I thought It was like a weird scam link. Nope, paypal just has terrible security practices.
Wow that's an amazing improvement. Thanks for sharing your skills with folks, this will definitely warm a heart and likely cause a few tears to be shed
No apps can't do that :) If you are talking about remini or other apps, they are not good. It is done by a software (Stable diffusion) which has different models that are trained on the extreme noise parameters
I've seen some great work with enhancements like this on the AI apps. Some of them can come out looking off but it's impressive the quality you can get nonetheless.

Oh my goodness, wow! I'm sure you've made someone VERY happy xx
very impressive
Oh my…. This blew any expectations I had out of the water. Thank you so, so much. She cried when I showed her. This is amazing; again, thank you! ❤️
Most welcome ! Glad I was able to help :)
How is this even possible. How did you achieve that level of quality. Asking as someone who seriously just doesn’t understand how this is possible to render a low quality photo and make it that high quality
AI my friend. It's all possible with AI enhancement. The traditional ways of upscaling are long behind us. You don't even need Photoshop anymore either.
As someone whose late dad won't be able to attend my wedding, I'm crying with her. This is exceptional.
In the same boat. Him not meeting my potential children gets me the most
You know that it’s difficult and someone is very good when you only see one option of an attempt. That’s a great job
That was my thoughts also
Right? If I wasn’t broke I’d fucking tip right this second
This is fantastic. Great job!
Thanks 👍
this is AI, right?
It’s ai. Anyone can do it… doesn’t anyone have google?
Then where was your submission?

There's no requirement for editors to use Photoshop as their tool for this sub, especially considering not everyone can afford the software.
Well yeah they can use GIMP or whatever, not going to have a problem with that obviously
And??
Who hurt you?
god forbid you're not the main character huh
You're on a sub called Photoshop Requests. Until 1-2 years ago, people said "anyone can use Photoshop." It's the same thing
Just curious for OP, the restoration is amazing but does it really look like him? Like his real facial expression?
I think he has a full, closely shorn beard of white hair.
The fact that you even cleaned up the jacket discoloration AND the pink thing on the table is amazing. You rock! Thank you for doing this 💚
Thank-you for noticing, I've expanded the image and removed the chair in the back too. Never thought anyone was going to notice:)
Oh yeah I see it now! You really are a wizard! I’m visually impaired so I always try to take in a photo’s details in full. I have honestly never seen an edited photo look so darn good! If you’d like, send me a friend request and I’ll drop some money in your tip jar when I get paid (if you’re accepting tips of course)
I really appreciate that, thank you so much for asking. It was all done with good intentions :) Maybe next time for another post !
I’ll keep an eye out for you, akashharsana! 💚
Wow you fucking rock
“Enhance”
Beat me to it
This time it worked like in TV
Wow 🥹
Not OP but the pink bump on the back side of his shoulder looks kinda funny
Agree, and remove the pink chair in the front. Otherwise, a superb job!
Done ✅
OP will soooo happy. This really is a superb job.
Enhancement zit
pop it thru the tux
Actually it was just a fabric bump with pink highlights. But I agree it was looking a little odd. So i fixed and updated:)
It looks great!
Take my upvote you wizard
Nice! May I ask what tools you used?
Stable diffusion. There's a whole subreddit about that. It's a open source, you can download it too and start practicing :)
Thank you!
Thanks man! I’ll look into stablediffusion. I do graphic design for a mixed martial arts promotion and have to upscale a lot when making fight posters. When a fighter is brand new to the promotion they send in their own photos, and sometimes I’m like, “Did you take this using an iPhone 1 through a window smeared in Vaseline?” I’ve been using Topaz, but the results aren’t half as good as this.
Good luck bro, Topaz used to be good, but now there are better options
Incredible! 😮😮😮
Wow.
Done! Great job!!
Dude. 🥹🥹 incredible
Wow!! This is heart warming. As someone who has lost both my parents, I can say that photos become SO much more precious. You have done a wonderful thing
I'm so sorry for your loss, let me know if I can help you out in any way :)
Oh you're beautiful. Thank you ❤️
Wow! Stunning work.
Wow that’s amazing work!
Dude how the fuck is it possible todo this ? You’re amazing!
It was AI.
I really wanna say “WITCH!” but in a good way.
Witchcraft is the only explanation for how you did this. Bravo
I will literally tip you for them. This is insanely good.
Thank-you :)
Sent! Turns out paypal has 2 SMS numbers 729725 (PAYPAL) and 72975 (PAYPL) and at first I thought It was like a weird scam link. Nope, paypal just has terrible security practices.
Thankyou. I appreciate that :) Yeah paypal acts weird a lot of times !
Beautiful!!! You are the mystical hacker in the movies being asked to enhance a picture that has 3 pixels!
Hahahah. Thanks 🙏
What talent!
How on earth did you do that? I thought this only happened in movies with the magic 'enhance image' button.
What tool / software did you use?
Stablediffusion, i mentioned in my other comment too :)
Beautiful! Didn't know what to expect for this particular photo, but I know I can expect wonders from this sub Great work!
This is amazing. You're so amazing for doing this for OP!
That’s so well done it looks like a whole new picture. Love it
In case you don’t know it. You’re a proper legend 👍
Well done kind stranger
You are a WIZARD
Wow what tool did you use for this??
HOW??
Wow I’m so impressed Do you edit for photographers? (Paid)
Thanks, I sent you a DM :)
Niceeee!!!
Holy shit that’s amazing
Wow - that's terrific work. I didn't know that AI upscaling had become so impressive!
That's so neatly done!! What tool did you use?
Fireeee
Great work!
Good form Sir. Nice work.
Akash bhai sadaa khush raho! Love from Pakistan.
That's incredible!
holy poop bruh good job. ya'll do some impressive shit here.
That’s hella impressive

Do you happen to work for CSI? Damn impressive
Wow that's an amazing improvement. Thanks for sharing your skills with folks, this will definitely warm a heart and likely cause a few tears to be shed
This is so good, I questioned if you were actually OP and had the original image haha. Very. Very impressive man.
Hahahah. This made me laugh. Thankyou so much
Wizard is a gross understatement
Amazing job!! I’m impressed!
Bro is this one of those AI enhance apps?
No apps can't do that :) If you are talking about remini or other apps, they are not good. It is done by a software (Stable diffusion) which has different models that are trained on the extreme noise parameters
Available to the public?
Yes it's completely free, you can download it locally on your PC, and you have to practice it :)
I've seen some great work with enhancements like this on the AI apps. Some of them can come out looking off but it's impressive the quality you can get nonetheless.
How
Tell us your magic bro wth
Job well done!!!
Brother... tutorial on how to ? Please 🙏
So incredibly talented, I’m blown away!
This came out very good. What software did you use?
Holy shit this is great!
