You could try using a tack cloth on a few cards:

And a zerostat on your scanner before wiping:

Amazon has the brush at a more affordable price, $25: http://www.amazon.com/Kinetronics-Stati ... atic+brush

Also, an alternative might be a spray mixture of distilled water and rubbing alcohol: http://www.ehow.com/how-does_5387641_st ... works.html

thanks for the scans, you guys are fantastic!

been following the thread since its beginnings silently, but it wasn't until i saw the earlier comments on the work done that i felt the need to come and show my appreciation.

i was not previously aware of the efforts required to produce scans of this quality.

now that i do, i am truly humbled in the knowledge that you folks put in that many hours to bring this to the community.

thank you all once again!

extreme, if you could do a tutorial or something similar, Im sure that a lot of people would be able to help this project and reduce the amount of time you have to spend on the images.

I have some experience with photoshop-

Yeah, i guess some people still dont realize that this is more a time consuming work than a mastermind skills (which in some situations you will need a little skills that afford you to do some "necessary" but strange things).

And BTW i dont know about how to scan, etc. My job starts with a canvas or something already scanned to work in. So... That cleaners look good, maybe i could buy a couple for my old and crappy multifunction U^^.

Anyways, IMO the scans looks wonderful. I wish someday i can see all sets in this quality, haha. Keep dreaming, i know.

Firstly i must say brilliant job with those scans of GTC! I was wondering are there similar XLHQ scans for other sets (RTR, M13 etc.). I have been on mws mtgbr com full-01.htm and they do have a massive range, but i havent been able to find others of quite as high quality. Don't get me wrong, the 480x680 are still awesome!

Thanks

Hello guys
sorry to reply only now,too busy..
I understand exactly how hard work it is. I did try myself with antistatic cloth between every scan but unsuccessfully. The dust keep coming back.
I don't have your magical fingers.
Basically I was not complaining but just just wondering why this time I can see dust on the scans, thing never happened before, even on XLHQ scans.
Sorry if my comment has offended someone,that was not my aim.

Hi all!
Thanks for your great work!

I wanted to ask you if you can re upload the Planes & Phenomenon card backs again, I found some links within this post but they don't work any more.

Thanks in advance! :D

Did something go wrong with the torrent link? I tried to access to the link many time but it can't find the tracker! Can you fix this problem? OR re-upload the torrent file?

Strange, I thought I was seeding but now the 100% completed and seeding dissapeared. I guess some has moved the folder or the files... And i dont know which folders has been moved so I'll have to redownload (again) the whole thing, argh.

I did not mean the Gatecrash torrent. I mean the torrent for the whole card collection! I just re-install my OS so i lose the torretn file. I want to re-download the file.
