OK, here's what confuses me. Photographers happily allow their images to be published in print. The better the quality of the image, the happier they are. Now; scanners are very cheap these days. http://www.epinions.com/cmhd-Scanners-All-Canon_650_Series_CanoScan_650U?tk=HP006.1.1 Back in the dark days of 1996, when I briefly did Print, I worked for a magazine publisher who didn't have a scanner that good. It's now $99. Aparently it's possible to buy scanners for $29. Computer retailers are giving them away with consumer-grade machines. A 600 DPI 42-bit scan from an art book is going to give you a much better image than even a 950x565 high-quality Jpeg. So what's up? Why the sudden paranoia, just because an image is online?
