thanks very much.

I have 587 of my parents’ old pictures scanned. I did the albums that had pocket style pages, and I’ve been debating how to do the ones in the sticky page albums.

I have two options:

1. I photograph them through their plastic.
Pros: Less work, fewer fingerprints, no risk of damage from the removal itself.
Cons: Photos are still un-safe over time, possibly reduced quality or increased glare.

2. I take them out, scan then, then put them into something else, probably scrapbooks. I’ve been wanting to do a scrapbook where I’d have two copies of some pictures,one with a coloring book filter applied. People could write peoples names into their outlines.
Pros: Photos are safe, people can be identified for us and future generations, scrapbooks are cooler than photo albums.
Cons: Lots of work for something that might just make mom angry instead of happy. Very time consuming. Have to do one then sell her on the idea before proceeding with the rest.

Your input, tips, or additional ideas?

When I choose a book I consider several factors: author, style of prose, plot AND font/layout and page color.

I’m only talking about books that you already know that you want to read. For example, I was ready to start reading a new book so I grabbed “Beloved” by Toni Morrison off of my bookshelf. For some reason the combination of small print and not much space between sentences made me not want to read it (for the time being; I will still read it of course).

Then I picked up “The Road” by Cormac McCarthy which has slightly larger font than “Beloved” and has much more space between sentences. For no particular reason the font/layout of the pages was more appealing to me. Sometimes I actually prefer to read a book with pages that have turned yellow with time.

Does anybody else ever thumb through a book and decide that they are, or are not, going to read it just because of how the pages look? Or is it just me?
Just to be clear, I will eventually read whatever book I decided to pass on. It all has to do with how I feel at that particular moment.

Book covers don’t affect my decision.

okay so i scanned a page from a coloring book and i want to color it it using “Paintbrush” the lines of the area i need to color in are all connected i checked. when i use the “fill with color” button all it does is put one dot of color in that area. what am i doing wrong? how can i fill in an entire area with one color?
i have been clicking on the “bucket” but it is not working

Here is the link to a 20 page jewel

Thomas Nast is the illustrator who gave us the character of Uncle Sam, the Donkey and Elephant for the parties; he is also the one who gave us the Santa Claus version of St. Nicholas. The link here is to an Aesop Fable version of how self-government could be thought of in a different way. Fill those stockings!

maybe 12 X 15, I did print a test run, of the ones through Kadak gallery.com. It cost 80.00 with printing on both sides of the page and a black background. Their printing quality was not as nice as a photography book you would buy from a book store. I am hoping to have it be 12X 15 or so….large coffee table size. and maybe a 5000 copy run.
Anyone have any insight? I live in the sf bay area…Just FYI
