panhandlefool Posted August 23, 2003 Share Posted August 23, 2003 All nice books but that Detective is a real beauty! Yes, I've always thought that was one of the nicer older 'Tec covers that never really gets a mention. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

panhandlefool Posted August 23, 2003 Share Posted August 23, 2003 Show off!!!!!!! Seriously, a beautiful and impressivley broad selection! I love seeing mixes like this. Actually, I purposely attempted to show a broad selection of books. I reached from where I usually display some various books (I do use the UV-protector mylar sleeves while out on the bookshelf), and thought I'd throw them up. More than anything, I'm trying to learn the digital camera, managing/cropping/transferring digital pics, setting up my webspace with my ISP and placing pics in postings. I thought I'd try to throw out some eye candy while learning a little. Perhaps I'll put out some more soon. Enjoy!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tb Posted August 23, 2003 Share Posted August 23, 2003 GC, PHF: Thanks for posting these - WOW!! Btw, PHF, no resolution is too high for books like that. I've been enjoying all the books in these threads quietly but these last few ones are just exceptional... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stagedoorjohnny Posted August 23, 2003 Share Posted August 23, 2003 Some great books posted here. I'd love to partake, but how the %^#@*! do I get my digital camera to produce a shot under 150? In its worst resolution it's coming in at 165. Any help for this layman? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In its worst resolution it's coming in at 165. Any help for this layman? I've just been playing with both Imaging (Kodak) software that came with my digital camera and the Paint software that comes standard with Windows. Try backing off a little when taking a pic of the book, then use your software to crop off the extraneous edges. That should help. Then, you can use your scanner software to back off the resolution if need be. Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PovertyRow Posted August 24, 2003 Share Posted August 24, 2003 OK - I initially was against a GA area for Cigar but am willing to try. I assume you all think this is a GA? Early Steve Ditko cover And the cover story is a Shuster!!!!!! PS - I STILL want to know what is up with those thumbs! Oh yeah - this was the last pre-code for this title.

But seriously - why are the thumbs cut off like that? I honestly don't expect an answer unless Ditko himself peruses thee boards! And he can answer the nose thang too!
