Guest Posted June 7, 2001 Share Posted June 7, 2001 Thanks guys! If you get a chance to scan 'em, we'll add 'em. We prefer .jpg format, at least 150dpi (if you have an old scanner, at least 200dpi). You don't have to crop them perfectly, we can do that as long as we get a good raw picture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Posted June 7, 2001 Share Posted June 7, 2001 Actually, if I can just pipe in here for a second as to our graphics "requirements". Most of the cartridge scans that end up on the site are a width of 400 pixels (5200 carts are 500 pixels wide). However, I scan the carts at much higher resolution, typically at 200 dpi, and save the originals away as PNG images. Once I have high-quality scans, I then crop, shrink, and compress the image, saving it as a reasonably-sized JPG image. What I would prefer people do is scan these carts at 200dpi or higher and then send us as high-quality an image as possible, using a non-lossy image format (such as PNG or PCX or BMP.) We'll then do the remaining work to make the image consistent with all the other images on AtariAge. For everyone submitting scans, many thanks for your contributions! They are helping to make AtariAge the largest repository of Atari information and images on the net. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
