Title: Knights in the Nightmare - DS - US Retail - raw scans needed
Post by: tiktektak on January 06, 2012, 04:30:40 AM
Hey guys!

I'd love to get a 600dpi raw for Knights in the Nightmare. Just aquired a cart only for cheap which now desperately needs a case.

There is one in our raw section but only 300dpi and kinda low resolution.

Thanks in advance!

Thanks a ton. Tiff would have been best but I think some of the file uploader sites don't like it.

By the way. Did you put sth heavy on it when scanning? The spine looks a bit unsharp.

He's simply asking are you putting something heavy and flat (like a book) on the cover when you scan it soit is super flat.

Ohhhh....ok.  I thought Sth was an abbreviation for some type of setting... and yes...kinda.  Its like a large Baseball card sleeve I placed on top of the artwork...and even after that I held my hand down on the center of the scanner lid the whole time it scanned.

Sorry for the confusion. Sth = something. ;)

It would really be best if you used a big heavy book. Won't do anything to the scanner and then it is 100% flat so I won't need to sharp it too much.
No biggie though if it'S not possible you hlped me a lot with your scan allready!

Thanks!!!! :)

Here is another go at the cover...i put the thin plastic sleeve down and then 2 dbz sets on top of that.  Hope that helps more.

 If that is still messed up looking I'll re-scan JUST the spine at a higher dpi...that should keep the data size down

Actually te hfirst one was better. Maybe it's the best we get from the scanner. Can work with it though so expect a cover soon. ;)

the logo does have a bit of a hazy blurry look to it anyhow.
