So, after finishing up the rough thumbnails for Stardust, I began what is to be an epic two week battle with Dreamweaver and the interbutts, trying to get the webpage updated by my self-set deadline. Though the scanning went smoothly of the old sketchbook stuff, Dreamweaver, as usual, made life difficult by not doing what I want it to do like the whore that it is. . .rough, maybe, but it's true. Simple alignments can be a major pain in the ass with the program, but then again, I don't have to learn none of that html jive, so, fair trade.
Back to the scanner though, a word of warning for potential investors. If you own the macbook or the macbook pro, do not purchase the Macrotek 160.00 dream machine. Apparently there is something incompatible with the usb drive and the device, rendering the device kinda. . .I dunno, useless. If anyone has successfully gotten one of these suckas to work on a macbook pro though, let me know how you did it. Please, pretty please. Ah well, nuff begging for one night. Also, the canon scanners, particularly the CanoScan LiDE 90 work quite well, though they aren't large format.
Namaste,
Jon Jones
