Once you (Addalime) have it, you could email folk back again if you can't get a copy at or below 2mb?

Addalime.
Here's the best version I know of for the MJK bed photo. It's large for a jpg - 20MB, and so the resolution is also large - 4806 x 6150.
It will give you the best starting point for what you want to do. I don't know of it's source - if it's scanned from a book or a photo.
It's far too big to show in a browser. That's why I'll put a download link. I could downscale it to a smaller resolution to show here, but that would defeat the point of my post. It needs to be viewed in an image viewer/editor to appreciate.
I've uploaded it before for something similar but can't find the thread for it.
It's a Dropbox link.
I don't know for Mac and Linux and their browsers, but I'm on Windows and use Firefox browser. If I click my link I get a dialog box appear asking me where I want to save it. Your browser might have a default folder/directory for downloads in which case it will probably go straight into that folder.

I'm fond of old PC games. 1990s and early 2000s. A thing at the moment is using AI to upscale the old texture files used for these games. Some of the results are great.

I found the thread that I said I couldn't find. It's for colourisations done by erobitha. Post #47 on page 4 of the thread shows the MJK bed colourisation.

It is not yarn leading us to the dark heart of this place.
They are half-glimpsed imaginings, tangle of shadows.
And you and I floundering at them in the ever vainer hope that we might corral them into meaning when we will not.
We will not.

Here is the result. Better in some ways, but frustrating in others. You can clearly see perfectly preserved bloody fingerprints on the legs. Unfortunately, not much use to detectives in 1888! also, there is still something baffling about Mary's face. Not just the horrific mutilation, something that doesn't seem to make sense... Is it possible that the face had been badly re touched by someone?

Since seeing the photo for the first time in the old Stephen Knight paperback decades ago, I've always felt that the actual details of her ravaged face have been obscured somehow. The image we have is too sheerly incomprehensible, in spite of all that we know was done to her.Originally posted by Addalime View Post... there is still something baffling about Mary's face.

They've done us a favour, I don't doubt.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but that MJK image was already AI upscaled by another member on here. For authenticity's sake I don't think it's a good idea to then run it again through an image processor.

Yes, I saw that one. This one isn't as far as I know the same version. It looked like a scan directly from the book. There is a limit to how clear these can be made given the relatively low tech I'm using.Originally posted by Harmonica View Post
