have you scanned them yet? Because I was told once that you should scan at 600dpi. Then after the image has been scanned, to change the dpi to 300. That way it's slightly better than scanning them in at 300dpi. Also, are you scanning directly to jpg? Or will you scan to .bmp/.tiff? In any case, couldn't you get someone to upload a torrent of the scans? Although... that's probably not best (copyright stuff). Sorry but I can't offer webspace. But I can suggest sharing systems like YSI or similar.

I've never heard this, but I'm not unwilling to do it this way, it'll just take a bit longer. All of the images are scanned BMP, and when I save them (using Photoshop), I use the highest quality, which makes for hefty file sizes. I'm not sure how well a torrent would work with me, my upload speed with torrents is absolutely terrible for whatever reason.

What are we looking at here, around half a dozen 2 meg JPEGs?


It'll be 8 JPEGS, a lot bigger than 2megs apiece.
