Like the title says. Thanks in advance.

 

Wow why can't I figure out how to post proper pics!

What am I missing in trying to copy and paste this image off photobucket?

 

Thanks

If you are using the first icon above the dialogue box you paste the Web address and then name the link. If you use the third icon above the dialogue box you are pasting the Web address of the scan and it should show up in your post.

You should keep checking your progress by clicking the preview button at the bottom of this dialogue box. I keep previewing until I'm satisfied with my post.

Hope this helps!

use the link that says IMG CODES

 

copy and paste that link directly into the text box no need for anything else

Actually no, always use the direct link.

Okay now that we have the upload figured out we need to figure out how to scan without cropping the edges!

And maybe put another coloured paper or medium behind the book for contrast?

And if you can link to larger scans it would be beneficial to getting more accurate grades from scans

....just sayin'

But for the heck of it I'll give you a 9.4 for what I can see!

Could you place a slightly larger colored background behind the book when scanning? This will prevent the auto crop and we'll see the edges completely. (thumbs u

Really hard to see like everyone is saying.

What I can see atleast it looks that way are several spin ticks that break color,

9.0/9.2 if that's the case.

Will re-scan it in a bit with a board behind it. Thanks for the input so far

A slightly colored background would probably be better than a white backing board, assuming that's what you mean. It may still work if it offers enough contrast from the white background on your scanner. Something as simple as a smooth paper bag cut to size will do.

I use either a light blue file folder or a sheet of yellow printer paper.

Re-scanned with better yellow paper behind

9.2 bit hard to see the spine ticks against blue/white cover. A book to be graded in hand. looks very clean (thumbs u

Don't use the paper - it's looks stoopid (like you have no idea what you're doing). Simply tell the scanner to scan the entire bed then crop as needed. Most scanners have a neutral background, or just leave the scanner open for black background.

 

I honestly can't believe the advice you get around here . . .

I will venture 9.4 IMHO
