My covers get rejected because they are too grainy. I I scanned them @ 300 dpi and they look smooth in Photoshop 7 and when I print them. What am I missing??? Could somthing be happening during the upload ???

First start scanning on 600 DPI and followig the steps of the tutorial in de Adobe photoshop topic.

You'll then get perfect non rejected covers!

Scan at 600 dpi but if you can scan higher do it, as you will have more resolution Everthing looks great on a pc, thats why you are not seeing the grainyness in photoshop. You can allway test buy resize the image to see what it looks like. blown up, but you should be fine just scaning at 600 dpi. If you have dust in you scanner, you will scan the dust as well as you label. If you clean you scanner, you will either have mirrors and a lens, get something to blowdust off lens as well. Do not clean lens unless you no what you are doing. If you don't have mirrors, you will have a contact sensor, this is where your scan makes contact with scanner and converts to digital image. When they get dirty you will usually get a line in your scan, as the image is moving and the dirt isn't.
