I'm really excited to see what this tagging project turns into. All of this data being available on a central repository would be amazing. Even better if the tag database is available for anyone else who wants to build upon it and incorporate it into their own project.

Thanks for the feedback - I was not aware some software would have difficulty with that naming convention. I will make the necessary adjustments in my workflow.

Third issue (#155) is uploaded and available now here: https://archive.org/details/game-pro-155/GamePro_155_-_2001_aug While the new Team Member permissions appear to allow me to upload to any category, when I select Game Pro magazine the max file size I can upload is 0 bytes. I've learned a lot from this magazine and have a new workflow which I am tweaking. I purchased a large heavy duty guillotine cutter which cleanly sliced off just the end binding of the magazine. However, I was perhaps too cautious with the amount I took off as there were various areas in the magazine that had glue that had seeped a little further than the end binding. I might have been better off chopping slightly more to start with. The end result was I had to go in by hand with a x-acto knife which resulted in some pages needed editing after scanning. I changed my scanning method to do 600 dpi and then run the images through SilverFast HDR for descreening, downsampling to 300 dpi, resizing, and color correction. In the past I didn't believe this process really made a difference in the end. However, I scanned a good chunk of the magazine my old way (300 dpi with hardware descreening) and the new way and then compared. It was no comparison, the new method makes substantially better looking images at a smaller file size in the end. I also switched to GIMP for photo editing to do cloning when possible instead of relying on cropping.
