Hail all:
Now, before anything:
I never used this as I tried today, so, it could be me.
That said:
I have received a photo, which is nigh wholly filled with a face.
I select face recovery, I get a square … but there is nothing I can do with it:
I cannot move it, I cannot resize it, it’s like it is lock-welded in place.
Tried altering the settings for Face Recovery … but that did nothing.
Is this a bug, or … am I doing something wrong?
Thank you aforehand:
Sammy.
Hi Sammy. When you select Face Recovery, you are asking Photo AI to use it’s face detection technology to look for faces within the image, if Face Recovery finds a face Photo AI will place a box on that face indicating it has found a face, multiple faces multiple boxes, and no you can’t move the box.
Also within Preferences you can ask Face Recovery to include Hair and Neck
Hope this helps
Apologies, been in the hospital.
Hence the late reply.
Issue is, that the selector does not select the whole face,. sir.
It only selects half a face.
Hi Sammy. There could be a number of reasons why Photo AI is only selecting part of the face for example, is your subject’s face turned to one side or is the face partially obscured by something if so, that doesn’t mean Photo AI’s Face Recovery will not work.
Select Face Recovery again, if Photo AI places a grey box around the face you may have to manually select that area by clicking on it then apply
Did you read the information John at Topaz Support sent you about using Recover Faces, if not here it is again
Recover Faces | Topaz Photo AI?
Hope this helps
Thank you, for replying, sir.
Sir, here is an example on which I have been experimenting (I never experiment on another’s photos, see … I find it disrespectful to do so):
Hi Sammy. This image doesn’t apply as it’s not a Photograph, Topaz Photo AI, Recover Faces Artificial Intelligence was trained on enhancing low-resolution Digital Photographs only.
Your image isn’t low-res or a Photograph
thank you for replying.
Isn’t a face a face, then, sir?
I mean, whether it is AI or a picture, a face is a face, or am I wrong?
All this “Art” stuff isn’t my thing, tbh.
I only do these upgrades of people’s pictures, to help them.
Still learning the proverbail ropes, sir.
I can tell you this, sir:
In the army, we did:
Rappelling.
Abseiling.
etc… .
That is also rope based, but dang, it was Hella lot easier. Xd
Thank you for your patience.
Hi Sammy. Photo AI, Face Recovery is strictly for Low-Resolution, Undefined, Out of Focus and Blurry Photographs.
Your Image is Well-defined, High-Resolution Computer Generated Render which is very Sharp.
Why on earth, would anybody want to apply Face Recovery to an image like this, which is already Sharp is quite frankly beyond me.
It is sharp?
To me, it looks very unsharp, sir?
Especially his right side (the side on the left from us).
It’s blacky, and has several “oddities” in it.
His left side (right to us) has “oddities” above the shoulder.
At first glance it might seem sharp, but it is far from, to me.
A comparison:
This to me is sharp:
I hope you can see the differences?

Thank you for replying, sir.
Original photo:
It’s the green spinach … erm … fella, good sir.
That picture is not processed, because I could not select the entire face.
Processed Image:
As I could not select the entire face, I did not process the photo, sir.
Is this what you want, sir?
EDIT:
It would be so darn great, if we could manipulate the selection box, like one can in Gimp or Photoshop.
In case we end up in a situation such as this … .
Thoughts?
Hi John. Has Sammy a licence to use this image
Here’s the link
I merely used this as an example, sir.
A comparison to Mr. spinach’s quality and this one.
I do not use it in any a form, it was linked from google search … .
Do you want me to remove it, sir?
Hi Sammy. Do as you will however, would you be happy if someone took one of your photographs from the internet and posted in a public place and was asking about editing your image without your permission.
Stock Photography sites are there for a reason to grant paid licences for usage rights and in return pay the contributing photographer royalties.
Besides can’t you ask your client Mr. Spinach if he wouldn’t mind if you post his photograph or use one of your own
Sir, I did not edit that one.
I merely used it as an example.
I DID use the Hulk one, to test upon.
Also, I do not use copyright for things I make, personally.

Here is an example.
And all my works contain that information, sir.
Check the date of posting, so you know, that i did not just put it there.
I will remove the example, sir.
And my apologies, I meant no harm.
EDIT:
I cannot edit that post anymore.
If a moderator please could remove Captain Picard’s picture?
Thank you.
