Good to scan at 300-600 dpi very very bad to over compress your images.

Scanned at 72dpi - higher resolution scan (300 dpi) would have given
better results.

Hiya Dappy!!!

You don't think you were going to get away with not getting a version from me! Grin Grin Grin   Slightly different as you already have lots of straight restores.

Hope you've been keeping well.
