If so I will scan these the same way, if not just let me know if there is anything I can do to make the scans better. --- End quote --- they need to be derasterized/descreened here is a link to a scanning guide http://www.thecoverproject.net/forums/index.php?topic=1305.0 --- End quote --- Hmm, I don't remember seeing such an option with my scanner app, but I will check again tonight. Is there any way to achieve derasterization without rescanning? |
| shenske:
No, sadly there is not, if there were making covers would be 1000X easier |

Thanks for the info! EDIT: Just did some searching through manuals for the app I use and I found the option hidden in one of the menus. Rescanning will be happening this weekend. Also, since the other raw scans I did are no good, is there anyway to remove them? |

Also, I'm not sure what resolution you did those scans at, but if you're rescanning them anyway, I strongly recommend scanning at 600DPI resolution. Basically you never want to have to scale anything up when making covers (since the quality will be lower than if it was high enough resolution to begin with), and especially when adapting to a different type of case - like from a Japanese GBA box to a DS case - you're bound to do some resizing and fiddling around, so it really helps if you have bigger margins to work with. Plus, higher resolution makes it easier to get rid of dust, scratches and other imperfections. When you submit new scans, just use the same filenames and they will overwrite the old ones. |

I don't know about Mr. Jack's scanner, but my scanner (or the software, I don't know which) won't let me scan higher than 300DPI if I have the descreened option on... :( |
