Proofs are in.. but

when i scan them, quality isnt great. any tips?
what setting did you scan them out 600dpi? 300dpi? i know when you scan them higher, you can do more with the picture, print etc... my a little blurry (not as sharp).

Thanks

Make sure the bed of your scanner is CLEAN. Also depends on the resolution of your screen and what program you're viewing through (ie, my pics look so much better when viewing on my imac through photoshop, than through the photo viewer on my crap pc at work)...so your photos may actually have scanned better than you think.

300dpi is print quality, meaning you're able to print out the photo you've scanned at its exact physical size (ie 5x7 or 8x10) and you won't sacrafice any quality. If you want to enlarge a photo, scan it at 600. You should be able to blow it up a bit without losing much resolution.

Good luck.

yeah..
sad how and why i cant figure this out since my life story involves computer repair.

photoshop does look the best and when i import to a different program is when i lose the resoultion. prehaps its the other program now that i think of it.

thanks .. prehaps this will be an excuse to get a new scanner
