Title: Free Harvest Time or Burial Promo to the 1st person to get me pics of Treasures
Post by: egilkinc on August 04, 2009, 04:35:55 PM
hey,

I will give a Harvest Time Promo or a Burial Promo (your choice) to the first person who can get me readable images of each of the Treasures cards - I must be able to read the verse text, identifier text, card #, etc ...
- I want each one as a .jpg or .gif image.
- I would prefer them sized comparably to the existing REG images (~4.5"X~6.8", 75dpi), but I will accept anything readable.
- You can zip them up into one file and can email that .zip file to me by using www.mailbigfile.com (http://www.mailbigfile.com) (use their "try before you buy - free service" option) - send it to: treasures.10.egilkinc@spamgourmet.com
or
You can post them online in some corner of the interweb that can reasonably be shown to be your own (your flicker account, your message board posts, etc ...) - let me know where you posted them.

I will post the winner here and we can figure out mailing details (free shipping) via pm.

Let me know if you have any questions.

L8er,
Gil

Gabe has scanned the TxP cards all into RTS images, but none of them are big enough to read. :P I'd bet he has sizeable images on his computer, but he hasn't shown those yet.

hey,
I pm'd Gabe and he realized halfway through scanning that he probably should have done high-resolution ones. As-is, he indicated he scanned them all at the low RTS resolution.
Argh! I'm 5-days ancey now :-D
I did finally get to see cards today, though. SirNobody showed me the 2 he got.

Hey, Gil.  If you don't mind waiting a couple more days I'll try to have medium quality images scanned, assuming they still haven't popped up in the REG.  Probably by Friday.

You don't need to send me any cards for it either, although I would take an Emperor Vitelius if you have an extra lying around.  I haven't been able to get my hands on another one of those... ::)

Here's what I got when I scanned Grapes of Wrath:

Anybody know scanner tricks to make it scan better, or is it just the shinyness throwing it off?  I may take photos of a couple cards to see if they look better that way.
