Hey all,
I just got the new Ships of the Line calendar and I was pleasantly surprised to see a month dedicated to my fave ship-the Prometheus.
I really want to add this wonderfull image to my website, but alas, I have no scanner.
Could someone scan it in for me?
I would be eternally grateful.
Thanks,
Chris

ACE!!
I have both!

What size (mb), format (jpg?) do you need?

A little tough to scan, but i think i can devide it into two pieces.

Would that suffice?

I'm scanning them in the next hours, just tell me then about the picture infos and i will adapt them.

My scanner is a little bit too slow, currently i'm scanning the first half with 300dpi, working 30min now but only 43% finished.

I'll say you have a slow scanner... I can scan an 8.5"*11" sheet of paper at 300 dpi in about 5 minutes, tops.

Thanks SO SO much Nemesis, you're a godsend!
For the picture, I don't care how big a file it is, but could you make it a 800/600 image? And in JPG. format would be fine.
Once again,
THANK YOU

Well, what other images are in that calander? Defiant?

Posted by Nemesis (Member # 255) on :

Currently they're devided into 3 parts.
I'm not so good using programs like Adobe Photoshop.
Anyway i'm posting them here, but they're really large!
Nearly 1.8MB for all three...

If you can't combine them, i will ask a friend with more experience in Adobe Photoshop.
If the MB-Size is too great, then just say so!
(BTW, do you have a flatrate or cable? )

Here they are:

Sidewinder, look at http://flare.solareclipse.net/Forum9/HTML/000868.html . AndrewR has summerized it up very good!

Nemesis, *I* was the first to post the content of that calendar. That's how the whole USS Bogue came up for the unnamed Nebbie that we had in MiaB. You'll have to go back a month or two in the archives to find the thread. But yeah Andrew also summarized it well.

Oh, SORRY popmaze!

I didn't bother to look in archives, i could only remember the one which was posted recently.

Of course now you will get the credit.
Sorry AndrewR, the prize goes to someone other!

After re-reading my post, I guess I became just a little too upset over the whole subject of creditation. I apologize for my behavior. It doesn't really matter who first summarized the calenday, only that it was.

And the scan still doesn't help in identifying the actual name. It just blurred it up even more.
