Is posting scans and details of books for sale in the announcement thread simply a means of inviting offers and circumventing the guidelines of a sales thread?

Actually no. its a means of advertising or finding whether its worth giving more information on the books and prices in an individual thread thus bumping other threads and taking up front page space.

 

Said the spider to the fly . . .

 

Not all of us try to get around the "system"

Is it ethical to bump the brightness and saturation of the scans of your books (thereby masking defects and enhancing colors) to overall enhance the apparent appearance of the book in your sales threads?

why dont you spit out the real issues you are having with whatever is going on in the sales threads that is bugging you? Instead of dropping hints, allegations, and things left unsaid

That's rich. When have the guidelines prevented anyone from doing anything, if that's what they really wanted to do?

I'm posting my next sales thread in the nude.

I agree. I think it's unethical but would like to know who is doing it.

I only wish I had a scanner that could make my books look nicer and then I'd make millions. If I photoshopped stuff, I'd end up making the books look like they have tape pulls or somesuch nonsense.

Who photoshops their scans?

 

Hell, all I do is scan and upload

That's not even the slightest bit funny. Now, I have to go poke out my mind's eye.

I auto level and auto focus every scan I post. I have found that, if anything, it enhances most defects. It doesn't hide them. If I wanted to hide something, I would blur it, not sharpen it.

I make my scans a bit darker and increase the contrast a bit because my POS Cannon scanner sucks.

I'm going to buy an HP though, that is the way to go!

I agree with Arex.. Enough of the silly assed games. Say what's on you mind, or is it just sour grapes?. I know you can do it. You did it yesterday.

It's pretty clear who he's referring to...

[DrWatson]

Yeah, I guess you're right.

[topofthetotem]

I'm gonna start a new trend on the boards.

I forgive all those who have wronged me both real and perceived. Peace to you all.
