Oh my gosh, I hate to think of something happening to your pages out in the wind so I rescind my sunlight suggestion (although maybe inside by a window?) :D<br />Thanks as always for your nice comments at my place!Cindy D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14818401562297915046noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1955417830470844723.post-10274090243736989762012-05-01T19:21:41.722-07:002012-05-01T19:21:41.722-07:00My scanner was under 80.00 too.

I got a dedicated one instead of an all-in-one cuz the Office Depot guy said it was better quality. It actually does do a great job on matching color, so if I try to tweak it even just a teense in "Paint" it throws the color off.<br /><br />Your sunlight suggestion reminds me of the last time I tried that. (BIG LAUGH) It was when I still lived in the foothills in CA and I think the mighty Santa Ana Winds were kicking up. Let's just say hilarious accidents doth not equaleth good photos - eth!<br /><br />Thank you for looking in!

Did I mention my scanner was under $80? (Still a lot, I know.) Also, it only does up to 8.5" x 11" and I've been feeling a bit limited in that regard lately.<br /><br />Love the drawing though! I know since I have a few of your originals how much better they look in person. It is too bad! Maybe you can try again in sunlight and replace the photos in the post.<br /><br />That background is super great, and the hippos are adorable. Really nicely laid out. Just wish I could see it better!Cindy D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14818401562297915046noreply@blogger.com
