There was nothing more that was interesting in year 6 of the series, so onto year 7. In the first episode of the 7th year (officially episode 90), "Fairy Tales", the boys get to wear some dresses, cool outfits, & tights. Some of our visitors consider this episode one of their favorites, but the prettiest dress never gets a close-up, & the only copy of it is very poor slow speed VHS tape transferred to old style MPG & WMV of the late 1990s.
With all the time I spent trying to fix & enhance the images, they still don't look good, but they still much better than if you just freeze-famed & captured the image on your own. Once more, I didn't post them in very large sizes because larger images only made them look worse & showed more defects. Depending on the quality or what's wrong with them, I use different methods or settings for each episode or scene to squeeze what I can out of them. It's not all automatic either & each image goes through at least 4 different stages of processing when they're this bad.
I'm sure if i spent time air-brushing, touching up, & painting over every image they'd look even better, but I wanted to squeeze as much quality as possible from the original images rather than altering them into something they weren't. I'll leave actual alterations to clean them up to other artists who are willing to spend an hour or more on each image. I didn't want to alter them, I just wanted to make the originals look as good as they can.
This episode should not to be confused with another episode where the boys wear some of the same or similar dresses in closer shots near the end of the episode. I don't recall which episode that was, but since I now have all of them, un-cut & complete before Nickolodeon edited out parts they didn't like or to make room for more commercials, I'm sure it will come up eventually.
Enjoy!
Love & spankings,
