Anyone buy Smackdown/RAW and Show programme magazines?
Wanna share it with the rest of Code X?
Well here is the place.

Now, you wanna know how to scan in high quality? Here are the steps.
1. Before you even begin, go into your scanners settings, and look for DPI.
2. Change the DPI to 600.
3. Scan your image.
4. Open it in photoshop.
5. Crop the image if page edges are visible.
6. Resize the scan to 1250px (or 2000px if u wish) on which side is the longest (width or height)
7. If the image seems dull, use AUTO-LEVELS to freashen it up. (CTRL + SHIFT + L)
8. If it still doesnt look right, fiddle with the brightness/contrast levels, or if all else fails, try a gaussian overlay.
9. When saving, level 12 jpeg will most likely always result in a large file size. So when saving, set it to a Level 10 Jpeg.
And thats it. Get scanning and posting.
