Title: CBR Files and scans circulating... Post by: pajarator on September 10, 2006, 01:10:17 AM Do you guys are aware the are full page cover to cover scans on the 'Net? I guess this is copyrighted stuff, but it's there nevertheless... There's almost a complete run on Act, Adv and WF, and complete on SGLL and SPJO and others...

Post by: MatterEaterLad on September 10, 2006, 10:08:35 AM I didn't know there was that much volume of stuff...as for me, I try to edit small images I find, crop them, change the sharpness etc. so I think that cutting a panel is fine, as long as we don't overdo it.

Title: Re: CBR Files and scans circulating... Post by: MatterEaterLad on September 10, 2006, 03:25:56 PM I'm a little confused as well...they don't seem to come up on search engines.
Do you mean practically all issues of Action, Adventure, etc. are scanned and available in their entirety? Title: Re: CBR Files and scans circulating... Post by: pajarator on September 11, 2006, 12:33:28 AM Yep... almost all... Except some rare golden & silver age ones... try searching on eMule (i like dazzle: http://dazzle.selwerd.nl/emule/ ) or on DC++ ( http://sourceforge.net/projects/dcplusplus/ ) ... in fact, on comicshack.no-ip.info on DC++ there's not only superman comics but other comics as well...
They're with .cbr or .cbz extension (which is just a .zip or .rar renamed) to be used with the 'comic display reader'. ( http://www.geocities.com/davidayton/CDisplay ) They're full page .jpg scans with high resolution, cover to cover... Title: Re: CBR Files and scans circulating... Post by: MatterEaterLad on September 11, 2006, 05:24:22 PM Wow, that looks like a lot more involved than I tend to get...
But anyways, I don't think there's anything wrong with cropping a panel to illustrate a character or something else for an entry. |
