general practice... (Fri Dec 31 19:37:11 1999 )

I agree with Mark on the rescanning point, its not a 
nice truth to face, but many of us have had to deal with
people who've tried to sell us fakes and Megan's
explanation of the Pirotess fiasco only proves the point.
That Pirotess image was really doubtful and its only 
prudent for the rest of us to be careful right?

The Garr (?) sketch was scanned large, if the cel was done 
in a size similar to that, or just the cel alone without
the background, this whole mess could have been avoided.
The forum accepts large scans :)

I think just in general practice, people should try to 
scan cels in a manner so as to make it _undoubtable_ that
the image is from a cel. You know, clear paint edges and 
crisp lines, all that sort of thing. If that means using 
someone elses scanner (like I have to do all the time now 
that I am a student in a foreign country) then don't you
think its worth it? 

It does justice to the cel and keeps our reputations 
for honesty intact.
I hope I havent offended anyone, this is just a suggestion
for scans in the future. 

Best wishes for the new year :)
