Diaux Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 (edited) Is not a secret that photoshoots from the early years of the band are not in the best resolution for obvious reasons, High quality screens weren't a thing and it was more easy to upload photos with a small size to websites. So with that in mind i decided to try to upscale some of their old photos. There are a lot of softwares and website that use IA learning to upscale photos, but there is one problem the original image dosen't have to be pixelated or the result would be blurry making the image looks like somebody just put a photoshop filter on top of it Here are some examples of the photos with the original and the upscaled one Jen Luciani Photoshoot Spoiler Original Upscale In this photo you can clearly see how it has that blurry effect going on thanks to the original photo beign pixelated I remove the watermark not this disrespect Jen Luciani work is just if somebody want to use it as wallpaper Frank Maddocks Photoshoot For Hybrid Theory Spoiler Original 1 Upscale 1 Original 2 Upscale 2 Hybrid Theory EP Photoshoot Spoiler Original 1 Upscale 1 Original 2 Upscale 2 Thanks to Martinez and all the people that collaborated in the Band promo photoshoot thread that is the source of the original images that i used in this thread Also feel free to request me other photos, I'm doing more Edited February 21, 2020 by Diaux Quote Link to comment https://lplive.net/forums/topic/14055-19992000-photos-upscale-project/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
hahninator Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 Great job on these. That's good. Jen isn't a photographer haha she's an LP fan (and member of this site) that got the photo I think in a contest or something.

Garret Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 Great idea. These photos are so cringe though, reminds me of when Mike and Chester would make fun of this time period during interviews and stuff from 2010-2012.

I like them but they are dated a bit. Which is normal. It’s just funny to look back. I think the Meteora photoshoot ones still hold up even today. Aren’t cringe at all to me. And of course the MTM ones are the best to me.

Surprisingly enough the Meteora photos are in really good quality. By the way Garret you know about any MTM or Chester pics that would benefit of this process?

Houdini House ones were the best from Kerrang but they’re impossible to find. They have released it from 2017.
