Thanks guys for all the info about scanning and digital camera's. Slightly off the subject but useful nevertheless (and all in a good cause). Jonathan, I shall scan the covers as you requestsed and post them to you. BUT, can you let me know what application you use to stitch them together? Some kind soul mentioned they used to use PaintShop Pro v3 (now that's old!), is it any easier in the newer version(s)? The reason I ask is that I have some 1000 LP's that I would like to scan the covers of some of them and if it was relatively easy, then I would be prepared to invest the time to learn to do it. I have relatively new versions of PSP and Photoshop and one or two others. By the way, any news on the FTP site or has that sunk never to surface again? I have some 12" rips I would like to contribute. Covers to be scanend over the weekend. Peace to all. Patrick (a.k.a jabberwoc)
