Well, I redid some of the photos. I over did the unsharp mask on some and the jpgs show the jaggies, I guess that is what happened to some of the airplane pics even before. I am finding that you have to use more unsharp mask when you are going to convert to jpeg, but I have not gotten it just right yet.
Anyway, I resized, unsharp masked, and converted to jpeg. Tell me if it is any better. I used unsharp enough that the plaid showed on the shirt in 'One Eyed Cat and Friend', it was toooooooooo much by far. I guess I am going to have to make the trek over to redneck country and get Bill to rescan them at 100 dpi. This time I will take a CD-RW along. Others that I have worked on are in the 'Sometimes We Make a Buck' section. I don't do too bad at this stuff when I control the scans, but I am not very good at massive resizing and then making them look good. Once again everybody, thanks for the ongoing help.
