Sometimes it’s a real pain not having a clue about technology. Am I doing something wrong or do I have rubbish equipment? No idea, but scanning artwork is proving to be more painful and laborious than actually creating it - which for me is saying something.
I’ve got a feeling if I just had photoshop I’d find things much more straightforward than using the basic art package that came with my mac in the first place.
What’s particularly irritating about all this is that it means I’ll have less time to get the artwork finished. If I was just burning it to a disc I could still be messing on with it all the way until the early hours of Monday morning, as it is it’ll either be a little late (depending on the post) or I have to finish it on Friday night so I can photocopy it on Saturday (nowhere will be open on Sunday)
Bugger.
I had planned to show some finished artwork here, but photobucket doesn't seem to want me to, maybe later.

Not sure what your problem is but maybe you should try using GIMP.
If it works I may look at demoting myself to a technical support desk! Have you tried rebooting? (It's an inside joke)
Is it anything like the 'have you tried turning it off and on again' line from The IT Crowd?
Pretty much the same thing.
Yep, try the GIMP out... What is the art package that came with yr mac?
It's just the artworky bit of Appleworks 6.
man... it's woefully inadequate. Gimp isn't perfect, but it's closer to Photo$hop but free... did your scanner come with anything like that?
I haven't even looked at Appleworks and don't intend to.
