Collectible Card Game Headquarters

Sound good, very good.
But please make some test scans and upload these scans. I think it would be better to check the quality first, before you do all the work.

I have scaned two Schemes. Are they ok?

Unfortunately not.
Look at this scan and compare:

wow, we got a new winner: there IS something worse than all-in-one hps. Incredible, I know. What, pray, is that scanner ? We really need to know.

There is an even bigger menace: MS Paint

it's all about the scanner, not the processing. One can do wonders in mspaint.

I meant something more in the line of "who needs a scanner if you can draw it in MS Paint!"

Ok, got to my scanner. Here are some test scans

Thank you, Jonix, for your efforts.

Unfortunately the colors of your scans are not very clear. The whole scan looks a little bit washed out. Please compare your scans with my test scan and you'll see the difference. It makes no sense to scan a lot of cards if you cannot reach this quality.

Additionally your cards are scratched. Such scans are useless. Please scan only mint cards fresh from booster!

And you did not clean carefully the scanner surface, there's a lot of dust and other dirt. Please read and understand extreme's "SCANNING-HOW TO".

BTW, how old is your Epson Scanner (or what type exactly)?

Epson Perfection 1670

hmmm, it's not THAT bad. They can be usable in my opinion - if not badly scratched - but I only saw the test scans.

So, should I finish the set, or just save the time and effort?

yes, please do.

Ok, whenever I get my hands on the scanner again I will finish the scans.

Hi there, just found your site today,

Wondering if you still require 600dpi scans of any cards still?

~ centuries ago when i collected MTG, I went out of my way to acquire unusual cards, these include a dozen summer edgars, alpha, alternate 4th and a lot of Foreign language stuff.

I scanned a couple of cards for you to see how horrible my scanner is...
