But the good news is, the hair is back to normal. I believe when I tried to make adjustments to lighten the background, it turned the hair orange. I think the odd look and feel to the photo was due to scanning at such a high resolution. My computer didn't like it and rebelled by messing up the pixels or something like that.</p> <p>thanks for suggesting I scan at 300 dpi or less. I have not been sure what to use previously, and thought higher dpi would be better. I think the computer has a hard time redrawing and consequently it shows in the reproduction.</p> <p>Again you have come to my rescue when I really needed help. I do so appreciate this forum and especially your help David. Thank you-</p> <hr /><a name="a2473_12"></a><p><b>From: Stunt Engraver (DGL)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=2473.12">#12</a>]<br /> 14 Dec 2005<br /><b>To: Linda (LINDAG)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=2473.11">#11</a>] 21 Jan 2006</p> Linda,<br /> <br /> I love a happy ending.
