If
you are dependent on clip art and stock photos, you can do much
better using your own imagination, your own photos, and your own
scanner.

A
picture is worth a thousand words.

The above scan could be much improved with additional training and
effort. This is a 5 minute quickie (total time to scan and image
in Adobe Photoshop). If you use calibration capability and all the
bells and whistles of LinoColor
software, you could produce a noticeably better image. The scanner
just arrived, I unpacked it, and wanted to see its basic qualities.
Not bad for 5 minutes. Just imagine the images you can produce if
you use your artistic talents.
| RAID
is super fast. Let MegaHaus tell you how. |
|
|
| A
RAID system is as easy as hooking two drives together. You get
twice the speed of a single drive with RAID level 0. |
| How
should you store your scanned images? |
|
|
| DVD-RAM
stores 5.2 GB on a disk that costs under $60 (2.6 GB per side).
A DVD-RAM burner/player costs under $800. How,
where to buy? |
