    1. Re: [VINTAGE-PHOTOS] Methods for scanning and storing photos.
    2. Just wanted to put my 2ยข in on this topic. What I have failed to see anyone point out so far is, that it don't really matter what dpi you scan a photo at, when you goto print it out it will only be at the dpi your printer is able to print at. For example, you can scan a photo at 1200 dpi, if your printer will only print at 300 dpi then that is all you are going to get out of that photo. Your quality of a photo is in your printer not your scanner. Now, this only pertains to if your printing the photo not storing it on disk to view on screen or web site. Join Now!

Our ancestors are the things that have came to pass, and our descendants are the ones to fulfill it.
