King of Fighters 02-03 / NTSC / Cover

HughJasol · 03-12-2008, 04:00 AM

I couldn't find a good scan of this anywhere, so I did my own (along with a few others). Unfortunately, the originals aren't in the best of condition. Hopefully someone can use them . . .

It is great that you want to contribute. I hope you don't mind a few helpful tips. When you scan your cover place something heavy on top of the scanner so the image is as flat as possible. That will decrease the fold marks and glare on the spines. If you need some help PM me and I can do some clean up for you.

Cheers Mate!

Thank you Iceman! . . . I'm open to any tips - or criticism - that you or anyone else has to offer. I actually did put a stack of books on top of my scanner (maybe not heavy enough). But a couple of these already had the vertical creases on either side of the "binding" - so for those it wouldn't have mattered how heavy the books were!

But I'm fairly new to this - that "Monster Jam / X360 / NTSC / Cover" was my first scan (and I think my best too). But I have no image tools - just the Epson Scan software that came with it, and then (I'm embarassed to admit) just MS Office Picture Manager; which is OK . . . decent color/brightness correction capabilities; but I can only rotate in 90deg. increments (no "straightening" feature).

Anyway - thanks again Iceman!
