Is that with slides or negs Lynn? I have been trying some processing of raw neg scans 
in PS lately, but reproducing the tonal range/gamma that VueScan's crop file achieves 
is not easy for me. Should I be restoring the full 0 - 255 (or slightly less) range of 
the RGB channels before or after gamma/ curve correction? Also, presumably it is best 
to get the Invert function out of the way first, so that you can see what you are 
doing on a positive image.

It is all a bit hit and miss so far.
