Popular Post Axe Elf Posted April 3, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted April 3, 2022 (edited) She ain't pristine, but she's pretty, and she's MINE, all MINE! muahahaHaHaHAHAHAHA!!! EDIT: Huh... those diagonal gray lines through the pic of Vampi on the back cover must be some weird artifact of my scanner; they don't exist in real life.

I'm just trying to figure out what two patterns are interfering. My best guess is an interaction between the dots-per-inch printed on that part of the cover and the dots-per-inch resolution of my scan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not an interference, but a known expected reaction of similar patterns overlapping. That’s why I added the link that explained. Don’t know your specific scanner settings or what DPI your scan is at but for web viewing it should be 72 dpi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what an interference pattern is, two patterns overlapping--they interfere with each other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jayman Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 (edited) Oh well, I tried. I stand corrected. I was thinking along the lines of them just interacting with each other. The answer has to be in your scanner setting I believe. Edited April 3, 2022 by Jayman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevemmg Posted April 12, 2022 Share Posted April 12, 2022 I agree, these are lovely examples! Ill take a copy with bright whites like these any day of the week! I think the Elf got his money’s worth out of just the first fifteen issues! flashlites, Randall Dowling and oakman29 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
