E-Day

So I finally finished scanning the 207 items listed in this post from October 6. I edited and released the Mario Kart 8 guide today, so there are 206 pending items. The thing is, I have no interest in now editing all of these after scanning them. I have other projects I want to work on that I have been neglecting to get all this stuff scanned and I would like to focus on those now, including new graphics that Philly man requested for the site. So for anyone who has access to the Retromags NAS (or anyone interested in editing who will require access), all the scans are living in /Team/Unedited Scans (Awaiting)/2024 E-Day Scans. Also living there is an Excel file with all the scans listed, who scanned them (me) who donated them (for proper credit) and what region they go in. All the scans are named properly as far as page numbering. Several Computer Gaming World issues are missing pages, so the missing pages file has been put in the right spots with the right file name to keep everything in order. Also included are the Photoshop actions I use when editing. One is for the Fujitsu scanner that spits out JPG files and the other is for my Epson flatbed which produces TIF files. The colour correction should need little tweaking if any, but I provided them more for the save functions. Each action will Crop to the bounding box when you hit F2, and hitting F3 will save the file to the original location (giving you a cropped but uncorrected scan), then does the colour corrections, resizes the image to 3260 pixels tall and saves it (for a full size scan) in a folder, and then resizes to 2200 pixels tall and saves it in another location for the standard release size. I do this in case we ever want to release full size scans, and also to save all the cropping and touchups before colour correction so that we have good scans to work from if we ever lose everything and need to create new files or if someone wants to fix the colour correction on the current release. Use them if you want or don't; but they are there for anyone who wants them. If you pick something to edit, maybe put your name at the beginning of the folder so that others can see you've taken it and work isn't duplicated. If there are issues with a scan, like many pages with dust lines that I didn't catch, let me know. I am keeping all the debound magazines for a while just in case someone needs a rescan of something. I don't want to keep them forever though
