I know you can go to Advanced>Descreen (on a mac at least), but it doesn't seem to do much to get rid of the effect..

It must just be the printer. I scanned Wipeout 3, and it should be in the raws. It turned out better than Bushido Blade 2. I tried doing some more scanning, but it seemed to get even worse. Do you guys have any suggestions on a decent scanner that might not cost a whole ton?

Hoo man, WipeOut 3 looks like it'll give me aspect ratio nightmares... I'm gonna have to either go all custom or find something else for the front cover.

I don't personally have a copy of it, but they made special edition of Wipeout 3 where the box art was much more simple in both NTSC and PAL regions. That might work better if you just remove the "special edition" part.

Got something a little different:

Official Wipeout 3 art, run through a few filters.

BTW, on the topic of scanners, I have this Lexmark all-in-one that I got at Wal-Mart for $80 and it could stand to be a little better, but it isn't bad. I fix everything up in Photoshop anyways.

Hey, no prob, I enjoy doing it. I needed the Gran Turismo and the Parasite Eve covers myself. I just recently decided to go the way of the vertical, so you caught me at a convenient time. I explored the raws section a little bit and it seems that the only raws available in the database currently that match up to your list (PS1) are a scan of the Namco Museum vol. 3 front cover and the Japanese version of GT2, which looks good, but I still couldn't find any backs, and the making it vertical might make the image look a little... bad... So other than that, upload some raws (I know you had a hard time with BB2 and apparently Wipeout 3 was a one-time deal) and I'll see if I can work my magic.  ;D
