Scanning cards at CVS

If you need to scan a few cards CVS is a great, cheap place. It was only $3.74 to make a CD. CVS is very convenient if you don't have a scanner or if your friend doesn't trust you borrowing his cards.
The scans look pretty good to me but I'm no expert. Devanar-Damir and Ranarti-Anant are both foil
Steps
1. Choose "Save Pictures and Videos"
2. Choose between "Make Kodak Picture CD" and "Make CVS Pictures CD" - I'm not sure of the differences other than the CVS CD costs $0.50 less.
3. Choose your input source "Scanner"
4. Scan card pictures ad nauseum
5. Add pictures to the CD, you'll probably want to choose "Select All"
6. Now there will be a number pad on the screen and you will have to get an employee to type in the code and insert a blank CD
7. After machine spits out the CD, check to make sure the scanned images are on the CD by choosing one of the options (the employee did it for me so I'm not exactly sure which option it was).
8. Upload your virtual booty and bask in the simulated glory
p.s.
And for what it is worth you can download all of the card scans that I made, link. This download includes the Inuyasha TCG Feudal 2 Player Starter and one of the starter decks from Wars TCG.

What is CVS?
When you´re a goblin, you don´t have to step forward to be a hero -- everyone else just has to step back.

In Florida there are a ton of them but I forget that they may not be everywhere. CVS is a very strange store name.

We have them here. This prompted me to look up what CVS originally stood for, which is "Consumer Value Stores".
