You are welcome, hope to see more, please could you scan then at 300dpi if you can as the resolution is quite low at 150dpi  in my software. They could be so much sharper.That tennis racquet was a nightmare  ::) ;D ;D

Hi Carol,
 I just tried rescanning Mahala at 300dpi, but it looked no different unfortunately. I think it was originally scanned at 300 because that is what my scanner is set at. Sorry it was difficult for you, I am still very pleased with the result. The original photo was tiny carte de visit size, maybe that is why it was not sharp. Regards Quester

Ok...it was only reading 150dpi on my software. Maybe any other Cdvs that you scan would be better scanned at 600dpi.
