Scanning beadwork ...still WAAAAAY off Topic, was: (My pics on E-bay)

[Guest guest]

Hi Hawke,

 

Adding my two cents to yours ...

 

I also use the scanner for my beadwork - yes, great detail that I just

can't get with the camera.

A hint for changing that icky looking background ... rather than just

closing the lid of the scanner over the beads, lay a suitably coloured

cloth over the whole thing so that becomes the background instead of the

inside of the scanner lid. Depending on the colours in your beadwork,

you may want to play around with it a bit to get the right coloured cloth.
