A couple years ago, I had some photos that I scanned. The project was a little bit hard but I lastly got it accomplished. I think I had about five images to scan on a flatbed scanner. I'm glad I learned how to do it, but I have to admit, my scanner has been in my closet considering that then, collecting dust.

Essentially, this is how I scanned my photographs in. I went out and purchased the scanner and followed the instructions on tips on how to hook up the scanner to my personal computer. The directions were not hard at all since they had colorful diagrams about exactly where the cables have been to be connected in. That was quite straightforward.

Even the driver (or computer software that essentially enables the laptop or computer to speak to the scanner and visa-versa), was pretty simple to install. I just plopped the CD in to the drive along with a wizard walked me by way of the setup. One particular point that I had to discover was DPI - dots per inch. For images that you simply required to send to someone via e-mail, 300 dpi is great adequate. The higher the dpi is, the additional detailed the picture are going to be when it really is scanned in.

The problem I had when I was scanning the pictures in was just that - scanning. I placed the pictures face down around the glass with the scanner, and pushed the scanning button. The pictures came out in all diverse sizes and I a really challenging time digitizing the photos. It took me a extended time to figure it out, but following a couple hours, I had them scanned in and placed on my challenging drive.

I didn't mind scanning my photographs into my laptop or computer technique, but I only had 5 pictures. My subsequent project that I would like to get around to now is scanning old photographs of a trip to Gettysburg. I have about a hundred photographs and there is certainly no way that I'm going to scan them myself. I understand how to accomplish it, however it will take to lengthy. Also, I want them to become a higher resolution, likely 600 dpi, but the greater the dpi, the longer the scanning will take.

So I will be sending my images off to a scanning service. They may scan images to digital photos for me at a fast pace. Then they'll edit all my pictures that have to have the colors sharpened and get rid of any dust that shows up on the images. Then they may download it to a CD or DVD and ship it back to me with my original pictures.
