[QUOTE="yourturntoloveit, post: 238433, member: 57"]Do you like it enough to keep it for yourself? If you do then first consider where you can/should hang it as a picture where [U]you[/U] will enjoy it. I suggest [U]up high[/U] and in a [U]less-than-bright location[/U]. That suggestion arises because I am going to tell you how to "save" the photo for your own enjoyment with not too much work on your part. Because it will be mostly for [U]your[/U] enjoyment, where all the holes are you could use appropriately sized "bits" of paper to "fill in" the holes from the back. Because the photo is black, gray, and white you will need only those three colors (but perhaps a few shades of paper in either shiny or matte finishes depending on whether the photo is glossy or matte finish). Attach (glue? tape?) those bits of paper to the back of the photo in the appropriate place(s) to "fill in" the holes. I'm prepared for all of the gales of laughter (and possible expressions of concern for my "thinking outside the frame") which will arise from my suggestion(s), but all responding would do well to remember that I said to "hang (or prop) it high" on a wall or shelf in a less-than-bright location. ;) :rolleyes: :D[/QUOTE]
