How to "unedit" pictures that were blurred, etc.?

[Fireplace]

I tried searching the forums but can't find anything so sorry if this is a repost!

I've seen a few instances where people have "unblurred" pictures posted here. Say Jane Doe has a pic taken but wants her face blurred out, etc. so John Doe edits it to alter her face, crop it, etc. Then Mr. Smart on OCC takes that photo and edits the blur back out to see Jane's face, etc. Win-Win, right?

So how does one do this and can it be done in photoshop? I have the full version of photoshop (version 7).

Thanks

Interesting. So how do you find the original thumbnail image from the edited version. I am assuming you mean that if you find one on the net you can't access that info but if you have the "original" jpeg or whatever then you can go into photoshop and get the original thumbnail?

Is there a tutorial somewhere on how to do that?

Thanks!!!

Here's an old thread, but it may still be relevant:

There is also a site called www.tineye.com where you can search for pictures , by uploading one. IE it will search for matches.

It can be useful- in the past I have searched some of my favourite pictures, and found uneditted/unphotoshopped versions, for example.
