Throwing the rest together (your hints) you are
thinking Fritz is the 'mystery' Dorothy Dixer poster??
I ran the jpeg posted.. Willy just smashed it.

"Tools" in a computing sense has another separate

One thing Fritz is known for, and what separates that persona from
others here (puts a hole in your implied DD theory)??... Fritz is very
low on tolerance.. of anything. I doubt herself is a nurse, maybe
once.. before failing at that too. There is some evidence in the "I
want it and I want it now" this poster has always displayed.

Indeed so.. and mostly from one source <g>

Each time I strike a new 'variable' all I see is an erosion of stuff
already sweated on and learnt. The goal posts keep changing, like.
I carnt see me mastering much more than what is available here.
I aint going to make a job out of digitising, nor hawk my butt at the
public. It is a hobby, pure and simple. Just that, with me I like to
do stuff right.. is all :-)

Cotton is for cleaning yer teeth with and sewing up cuts.

Indeed so. In fact it is the first time I have ever seen it
mentioned here. Tells me a lot about ABCP :-/

feh.. do not make the mistake of accepting "length of subscription" as
any indication of knowledge levels in this place.
ABCP had been running for at least seven years (according to the cmsg
filing date) before I got here, and what I found wasn't pretty. Maybe
two people who had half a clue on posting(anything) and the rest a rag
taggle of nice folk and standover merchants running an embroidery
ring. Lots of "shut yer face and quit complain' about bad files until
YOU post something". That crowd didn't last long <bfg>
>But, the request sounded genuine. /shrug
>
The actual request was ignored:
MiD: <k0ebc69ubmmgfflh0o0rabbt06ptb9haar@4ax.com>
... thanks to input from Gymmy Bob.
The digi attempt, yes.. appeared genuine. Today it is "oh I am just
the silliest of wall flowers, do help me"
All posted with lifted skirt and garish garter.. feh..!

I ran some graphic tool over the posted pix and tweaked that.
Pointed Willy at it and the results were mediocre, at best.
As to the detail of "background sewing settings"..?.. there are way
too many variables to say the job *wasn't* done by Willy buuuut the
general handling of the image says it is unlikely.
/snip
>>I could 'wiggle it'.. if needed<g>

I spent some time on just the G. The results are attached.
AT that level one is looking at at least an hour to do the whole job..
Fritz would not spend that time.. it is easier to post a "Help me feed
my starving kids"... if you get what I am saying :->

tip?
With this one - Fritz... do not waste the brainfood even giving it a
nanosecond of speculation.
There is something for nothing.. heh

... and the cause of his own dilemmas.. but that is another

Prolly sewing AND doing bedtime in getting through the mortgage
crisis!
