Rsxtacee Pillar of the Community United States 737 Posts	Posted 04/18/2011 02:37 am Did you click "Replace Original" or "Save a Copy"? If you saved a copy it should come up as another file in your album. Also, when cropping, after you've selected the area you want to crop, right click and select "crop selected area". The next image you see should be the cropped one. Then you can save a copy and still have your original one to use. Hope that makes sense. Report this Post to the Staff
busthalf Pillar of the Community United States 1304 Posts	Posted 04/18/2011 02:48 am This is from photobucket It's a scanned coin from my gallery. How do I blow it up and if I do will that be ok for grading? Report this Post to the Staff
busthalf Pillar of the Community United States 1304 Posts	Posted 04/18/2011 02:59 am The reason I ask if you all think an enlarged scan would be OK for grading is because I have over 1800 scans and to photograph each one will take some time. Where as replacing small scans with enlarged scans in my gallery would be less time consuming. Tell me what you think! Report this Post to the Staff
Rsxtacee Pillar of the Community United States 737 Posts	Posted 04/18/2011 03:05 am It would depend on the loss of detail when enlarging. If the image becomes too grainy, then it couldn't be accurately graded. I've found scanners to work alright with larger coins. When it comes to nickels, dimes, and pennies, etc. Cropping it too much makes it loose too much detail (my scanner anyway), and the original has a lot to be desired. All you have to do to enlarge that picture is crop in closer around the coin per my instructions above (If it makes sense). You'll be able to see right away if it's a usable picture or not.

Rsxtacee Pillar of the Community United States 737 Posts	Posted 04/18/2011 8:13 pm There should be a resize tab next to the edit tab. I'll check when I get to my computer. Report this Post to the Staff
cladhunter13 Pillar of the Community Canada 1161 Posts	Posted 04/28/2011 9:15 pm Download a free photo editing software called Photoscape. It allows you to crop round objects and fill the background with your choice of colors as well as many other adjustments and tweaks. Just search for Photoscape. Its what I use along with another free program called Paint.net try a search for it as well. I think they will help. Here is a example of the round cropping. Report this Post to the Staff
