Man, archive.org file management is such a pain in the ass, if even the slightest thing goes wrong you have to ask for support in the forums....
-
Gamest 7 uploaded, uploading issue 8 right now
-
Uploaded issue 6 https://archive.org/details/Gamest007198703 I already requested to fix the url since the uploaded file had an incorrect name I was thinking to upload also some Neo Geo Freak issues just to keep things fresh and interesting
-
I have the “preview 99” psm issue, italian version, will scan it someday
-
Sure, I would love to see them edited and published here. Everyone is free to do what they want with the scans.
-
don't tell me that Issue 4 uploaded, later issue 5 will follow
-
Gamest 2 up https://archive.org/details/@japanesemagazinesscanproject?tab=uploads&sort=titleSorter Next will be Gamest 4
-
Gamest 1 online! https://archive.org/details/Gamest001198605

Gamest 200 and 260 online. I'll now start from the first gamest issue and proceed chronologically. They're in such a pristine shape that I feel kinda bad debinding them https://archive.org/details/Gamest20019970830 https://archive.org/details/Gamest26019990515

and here it is https://archive.org/details/NeoGeoFreak66200011

Neo Geo Freak 66 uploading to archive, meanwhile I decided to keep only the twitter account as a communication outlet
-
thanks, I managed to find info on this page https://help.archive.org/hc/en-us/articles/360018818271-Internet-Archive-Metadata currently I lost ownership of the file because I changed my mail address submitted a request on forum I also haven't found a way to change the thumbnail to the front cover
-
I would like to do that, can you be more specific? I know how to add a custom field but I'm not sure sure how to do that At the moment not, I would like to get out stuff as much as I can, if someone else wants to do that it's no problem
-
thanks! patreon page fixed https://archive.org/details/Gamest19819970730 hope that the derive task will also produce a small pdf file the tumblr images were quickly resized with paint without keeping proportions, they're just for show edit: I'm an advanced member, wow!
-
Also, can anyone confirm that the ix500 saves natively only pdf files and then converts them to jpg?
-
Thanks, will do, however I set up the patreon just for fun, don’t expect to make anything out of it. Impressions about the scan? I would like to here more comments before scanning other issues, meanwhile I’ll try to prepare a Neo Geo Freak
-
Checkpoint, an italian multiplatform magazines, 4 issues only. I found recently issue number 2 at my grandma’s house, was pretty sure it was thrown away -
I created a tumblr and a twitter account connected https://japanesemagazinesscansproject.tumblr.com/ https://twitter.com/JapaneseMagScan Also set up a patreon page in case someone wants to donate https://www.patreon.com/japanese_magazines_scans_project So far I've not yet started to spread the word, once I have a few scan uploaded I'll post on a couple more forum, this thread will serve as an headquarter/discussion place with fellow scanners
-
So it begins, I gave my first shot at scanning something. I opted for 600 dpi because why not :). Jpgs shouldn't be compressed. Let me have your impressions. https://drive.google.com/open?id=1slyRLhCIBSCxvdxac3SW48Phkjk_JhEC I'm using the scansnap utility and it looks like it generates pdf and then extract the pages as single images. Is there any option to make it output jpgs natively? Later I'll upload it to archive.org and from there anyone would be allowed to edit/reupload it as they please
-
I tried this with an hair dryer on a old prima guide I had around. The pages came off but they still had some glue residue on the edge. I’m doing something wrong? Would the glue damage an adf scanner?
-
Sorry to be nitpicking but this site is so great that I want it to become the MAME equivalent of printed media preservation: no compromise fidelity However we can start worrying about missing stickers once all the other famitsu issues are uploaded So I should check only magazines marked as uploaded? Can I assume that everything marked as preserved is good?
-
Another thing is how supplement inside the magazine are handled, I think the best option would bento have the, inside the magazine and replicate them also in the supplement sub categories like in EGM 31 for example
-
another thing, I took a look at two issues of famitsu scanned by you (43 and 169), I think a new tag like "need pages/improvement" would be more suitable since they're missing a few parts or have the stickers used on the map
-
I assume that would be concern mostly US and UK scans, looked at the argentina magazines and they seems uploaded all by emol and are looking good
-
Sure, not starting anytime soon, but when I’ll do I’ll use this forum as some sort of hub/blog
