Magazine i got a few - Page 2

Codetapper · 18 May 2012, 21:46

I'm a bit confused by the uploads. Each of the 5 pages has a 2Mb JPG file, and with it is a 10-30Mb BMP file? Why are you uploading BMPs? Can I delete those? And why can't you just upload the individual JPGs into a single folder?

Some of the pages are a bit blurry too - usually you get that near the spine but for example page 5 on the right hand side should not be as that is not the spine. Are you holding the magazine down when you scan it (as you need to!)

bugsthor · 18 May 2012, 21:54

sorry about that, photoshop or the scanner auto put each scan into its own folder in bmp format did`nt realise it was 30mb till i uploaded

sorry, so ill cut that out from now on, i realised page 5 was blurry but, i have the power to re-scan

its the only page i did`nt hold down, and the mini screen on my printer/scanner gets in the way alittle, but yeah just before i went for it i though i would get your opinion on the ones i did first. i`ll finish the mag off tomorrow for you in jpg and one folder with no bmp

Codetapper · 19 May 2012, 01:27

Apart from the blurry page 5 they're fine and I can put them online. But it will take me forever unless you can upload them all in a single folder!

bugsthor · 19 May 2012, 19:41

ill do that ,i will upload them all for you tomorrow night time, becuase of our time difference, im nearly going to bed when your getting up. or the other way round lol.
so to make it easy for you ill upload them all togther

bugsthor · 23 May 2012, 21:14

sorry its taking me a little longer than expected, did 90 pages yesterday including those saut after advert pages. and numpty me pressed one button on my all in one and lost 60 pages without realizing it, which right pee`d me off. numberd them as you need 001 the i had left.
I will do them again tongiht from front page to back the ones missing so you will have all of them, i`ll check them in photoshop to straighten some out and any touch ups if needed for you.
got to admit though the scans are prity good at 300dpi,and not many wonky

bugsthor · 28 May 2012, 23:45

uploading all 132 front to back , with the ever so important advert pages ^^ with no real info.

any your not happy with let me know.

Also been looking at your missing stuff and i think i have one or two of them also. and those mini books you get. one or two books.
would anyone be interested in a PDF version for down load !

Codetapper · 29 May 2012, 04:38

I have kept the page 1 we had as it was much more clear and sharp. Page 17 has not scanned correctly. The pages you have uploaded are online, most of them are ads!

bugsthor · 29 May 2012, 09:08

glad nearly all are good, re-doing page 17 now for you, it auto cut the pics from the top of page.
i am also uploading issue 40 NOV 1992 pages that are missing 197 to 248

special edition 1993
if your interested, i think these are taking a liberty on price/s. but its there originals . if he gets 5.99 or 7.99 i`m selling my lot lol

bugsthor · 30 May 2012, 02:39

Codetapper · 30 May 2012, 04:57

That one would be interesting. None of the team has it listed in their collection but we must have got the cover scan from somewhere!

rampartsagain · 30 May 2012, 07:30

well maybe i am in the right place.
i created a post some times ago as my user waiting validation account ,does any one knows of a demo that had faces morphing into animals like lions and stuff does anyone remembers it,if so can anyone post in the zone ?
many thanks

bugsthor · 30 May 2012, 11:20

that was on youtubes a quite awhile ago i seen that vid RAMPARTs

i`ll start to scan that book today, but it will take time there is 170 pages, some with little black and white pics.
Unfortunatly CodeTapper there is no advert pages which we love so much with usefull info on prices and stuff

i`ll do what i did before, scan a few pages and see if you like the qaulity 1st.

i might even hhmm idea!!

Codetapper · 30 May 2012, 11:27

Even if the quality isn't great I'll take them since we have nothing! As long as you can read the text, she'll be right...

bugsthor · 30 May 2012, 11:34

Some of those are oversized so if you've only got an A4 scanner I wouldn't bother.

Many of those Amiga Format freebies are already in AMR, under the extras button for the issue they came with. eg. the one with the Jeans, I'm sure we have that fully scanned. I have it here somewhere (and an A3 scanner at work anyway)

Just do a check to ensure we don't already have those little books scanned to save your time - really have to match the issue it came with.

bugsthor · 30 May 2012, 14:32

been experimenting with the scanning of documents, i think i got it sussed

looks good but my GOD it`ll take me the best part of a few hours lol,

it still only goes to page 28, i uploaded all of them yesterday codetapper
