Capt Snow Posted February 23, 2005 Author Posted February 23, 2005 That's nice, what kind of scanner are you using, if you don't mind me asking? Quote
Nemo Posted February 23, 2005 Posted February 23, 2005 Actually, I'm on the lookout for a good scanner as well - how many dpi is yours? What's a good standard?Didn't know Ana did Oakley!! Quote
ddmscans Posted February 23, 2005 Posted February 23, 2005 Actually mines a 4 year old or so Visioneer 5800. https://visupport.visioneer.com/Portal/view...22-2bb07df3013c I scan directly into Photoshop 7 using the Import feature in Photoshop. It'll do up to 2400 dpi but most of the scans I do at 1200. Some of the VS Cat. stuff I do at 600 dpi because of the quality of the paper. The make and model don't really make much of a difference since there's only a few companies that make the actual optics for all the scanner manufacturers. What matters is the size of the bed (how big a page it will hold), the number of colors it will reproduce, and the highest dpi it will scan at. The Visioneers are good because they have good specs (colors, dpi, ect...) and are cheep. Glad you folks like the scans. Oh, and in case anyone wanted to know I didn't really have to do a lot with that after I scanned it. I used Gaussian blur to a setting of 2.0 (basically until the dots from the printing process were blended) resized it in half. Did "sharpen" at the full setting (didn't use fade any), did "sharpen edges" at full setting, resized down again to the "Extra Large" size and used "selective colors Neutral" and increased black by 5, Yellow by 2 and red by 1. Sharpened again and faded to about 75% and that's about it. Quote
Capt Snow Posted February 23, 2005 Author Posted February 23, 2005 My old visioneer just busted a few months ago, it was from like 1999. I gotta pick up a new scanner. Quote
Nine Posted February 23, 2005 Posted February 23, 2005 Will try that. Always looking for methods to scan larger Quote
Capt Snow Posted February 23, 2005 Author Posted February 23, 2005 Just wanna say thanks Nine for the last scan on page three of your Ana section on your site. I bid on that Iguatemi mag, a long time ago, it got up to like $16 and I quit bidding, eventually sold for like $32 or something, a little steep for me. But thanks to you I got to see a picture from it. Quote
Nine Posted February 23, 2005 Posted February 23, 2005 You'll get to see more, as soon as I get around to scanning them. But you know me... school, work, life...but it will happen. I promise. *s* Quote
