YES! YES!

Now this is awesome. Nice work Phlibbit, but how'd you get the papers like that? It doesn't look scanned, where'd you find them?

Great update. This may seem smaller than what we're used to, but Phlibbit spent at least 3 hours scanning and editing the coloring book pages alone. I'm surprised how well we keep up this weekly schedule.

It took forever. Mainly because last week I scanned all of the coloring book pages and then resized them into thumbnails and saved them back. So I had to redo it all.

And the weekly schedule? It ain't easy.

Now this is awesome. Nice work Phlibbit, but how'd you get the papers like that? It doesn't look scanned, where'd you find them?

The coloring book pages are actually scanned, believe it or not. My scanner has this great option for scanning newspapers in without the "paper" texture and retaining only the picture/text information. When you do that to a coloring book page--well, it looks awesome, doesn't it?

YES! YES!

Its looks REALLY awesome. And its cool that your scanner has a feature like that. I bet it wasn't cheap.
