If the photo is for sale and not too expensive, why don't they just buy it??

That would be great. My scanner is not wide enough for this image. Any idea on what I would charge? It's not an image they're likely to find anywhere else. They've offered to pay but didn't say how much.

They are asking for the image to be 300 dots per inch/pixels per inch (DPI/PPI) as that is the standard for print-that and converting the image space from RGB (Red, Green, Blue) to CYMK (Cyan, Yellow, Magenta, and the color Kinske-or black, dealer's choice.) Any of these adjustments can be done by the user, but you should give them a high enough res scan-set at the highest true optical DPI, to get the best file possible. -Daniel... P.S.-If you are ever swinging by West Hollywood, just stop in an scan it on my 18x24" scanner and I can process the image for you. I do think you need to offer the highest quality scan, especially if someone feels it is important enough to be published in their project.

It was taken by an avant garde photographer. The person who contacted me wants to buy a 300 jpeg scan of the photo to use in a book. I've never done anything like this before and would like some advice from those who have. Thanks!
