Now began the operation of scanning in earnest. Neither of us knew what the heck we were doing, but we were game to try. I was too shy to admit that I wanted to scan a silly black-and-white doodle of a bug for Bugbones; so, I whipped out a photo of one of my acrylic portraits and popped it onto the glass. Immediately, we were faced with an array of puzzling choices. Change resolution? Scan as grayscale? Scan as 12-bit or 256 or 17 million colors? Save as a .BMP, a .GIF, a .JPEG? (which we had heard of). Or a .TIFF, a .JFIF, a .PSF? (which we hadn't heard of). And perhaps a dozen others. Decisions, decisions, decisions...
Oh, the perils of Bugbones...
