suzumiya haruhi and shana is far better than what AP and their halfsize scans can muster :P also these are available in png later

and again i did not edit these, just saved them in jpg at 99 quality because they're too big.
>> Zothique !5kL7bwCrGk
Excellent. The pngs would be appreciated!

You do realize that for the PNG, all he does is take the same JPEG scan and save it as a PNG. I know where these are downloaded from, so they start as JPEG. All these PNG requests seem quite silly knowing that.

if you're so sure about that, why dont you go and post the pngs yourself. that is if you have them to begin with.

first off, all the jpg ones are half-sized so even if i do upsize them, you'll definately see the difference with the text labels found in the corners.

posted is one of those original jpg ones. (creaseless)
if you just wanna sit here and complain why don't you go out and scan it or find the original png yourself.

Please learn to read. I did not say you upsized anything. The PNG and JPEG images are the same, and the original download format is in JPG. PNG images are only awesome when originally scanned and saved initially as PNG. What's the problem?

Pic related, now STFU.

>>80091The PNG and JPEG images
wow... you fail RIGHT THERE, and boon is scanning it [i think], so saving it in PNG does matter

and if he retouches the jpeg, then saving it in PNG is obviously better
>> Yoones
oh oh oh yo sons,
>>80077statement is accurate according to what we read... but we need proof
boon where are those originals png from? :p
serious business!
>> boon
source is japanese, im not personally scanning it and i probably wouldnt want to rip up a magazine unless i got 2 or something. no im not retouching them because im lazy and i dont have enough scratch disc for >2gb editing :(

i rather have other people screw it up instead of people complaining about stuff to me. and if you recognize my name then you should know im the same person who edited the guren scans for dovac from moe. trying to preserve as much line detail and bringing out the original true color :P

since anonymous does not approve of boon's contribution, boon shall wait for mr.anonymous to do better and post.
>> boon
i should've been more accurate. source is from 2ch. via japanese upload sites, which a friend got me the urls and passwords to download them.
most of them require passwords to download them, and some require passwords on the zips. passwords are usually relavant to the scan posted and its sometimes in japanese script.

unlike boon, I don't need to have 4chan praise and love me, and thus being anonymous is enough. when i want to share, i share without holding ultimatums and acting like i'm the only way 4chan can get scans. and yes, anonymous can do it better.

I wasn't complaining before, i just pointed out the obvious and you threw a fit. Get over yourself.

What programs does everyone use to scan images? And can you compress them as well? If so is it the same or different program?

im suprised the chokotto sister one hasn't reached here yet, and i thought anonymous gets from the same place? or maybe he's a little slow or doesn't care anymore.
>> Anonymous
>>80391

I don't know if you mean me, but I haven't seen a good scan of the Chokotto sister one around. Some of our sources are likely the same, but you seem to have better ones than I do. Which is absolutely fine by me since you keep sharing them, which means I get to have them too. So, you certainly have my thanks.

jpg convert to png = instant fail
>> Anonymous
No point in coverting from a lossy to a lossless format in anything. It's already lost - like shutting the door after the horse has bolted.

PNG's strength still remains in doing still low-color images with lots of contingent pixels of the exact same color. It will do that better than GIF. Asking PNG to do the same thing as JPEG is a losing proposition.
>> Anonymous
>>80804
you're right about the first part

but the strength of png isn't just for palette-restricted images. pretty much anything non-animated that requires transparency, png is your best bet. also, it serves as a decent intermediate between the filesize of jpg and the quality of tiff, so if you're looking to preserve every last speck of image quality and you don't need things like image pyramids, layers, etc

>>80797
direct jpg conversion to png is worthless, but if you do anything to the jpg in between, then it isn't. even cropping, when you go back to re-save the jpg, you get slightly more loss. sure, it's still retarded for fairly negligible amounts of loss, but there is *a* difference
