If you want to submit
images to existing items please use the "submit info" link on the right side of
the item header. Then it's easier for me to find the right item in the database.
Images for new items please submit the item via the submit forms first and then
email me the images afterwards.
Please name all the images
with a clear description. It's not easy for me if you name them 1.jpg and 2.jpg.
Remember to let me know if I shall NOT use your name or nick, if you for some
reason wants to be anonymous.
I'd like for everyone to
use these new guidelines so that everything looks a little more cohesive.
The steps below are pretty simple, so you should be able to apply them to
whatever graphics editing program you prefer.
For the best result please don't
scan cds and cd sleeves with the jewelcases.
I like to scan at min. 200 dpi.
If the image is skew please rotate it so it's as straight as possible.
Crop the image.
Optional: Re-size the image so the height is max 650 pixels (or max width 980 pixels).
Save the image as a JPG (JPEG) with some compression.
This is a little difficult to explain since each program measures
compression differently, but use enough that the image is a reasonable size
(100-200 KB) and but still looks nice.
I use PhotoShop and a JPG compression level of 8 usually produces pretty good
results. Sometimes level 9 or 10 gives visual better results, especially if there is
red color in the image, so please judge
yourself.
Feel free to scan
whatever additional features or inserts you'd like. I can't promise to use
everything, but I'll consider everything. As some of the scans already listed
are old and some not in fantastic quality, you are more than welcome to send me
replacing scans in better quality. The same goes with the many scans that are
from ebay.
Thank you for your help!
